For me Earth and Fire is the highlight
of the ceramics year. Set in a country park with 100 selected
potters, an anagama kiln firing, and pottery demonstrations. The
Rufford Ceramic Centre houses a collection of classic pots including
work by Leach, Cardew, Rie et al. There is also a ceramics library
of out of print ceramic books and a complete set of Ceramic Review
and Crafts magazines avalable for nostalgic glimpses into the
past.
From a collectors point of view Earth and Fire is about meeting
old friends and making new ones. It is a great day out so come
along and support the potters at next year's event.
