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.
