Another Roman inspired pot. This one is going to be ash glazed using ash and clay from the @omvedgardens site. The pattern is based on patterns found in the pots at the Highgate Roman Kiln site. Hopefully I can make a nice runny ash glaze that will pool in the detail bringing the design to life? I am going to finish the pot with a spoon handle using the Victorian spoons excavated from the site, the third photo shows a mock up but I think I need a different spoon or to work on the shape of the one in the photo? Anyway fingers crossed this one fires ok and I can get the ash glaze to work well 🤞🏼 #roman #romanpots #beadedrim #beadrimmedjar #romanpottery #flutedneck #pottery #ashglaze #spoon #pottery #potter #handmade #pattern #spots #lines #omved #thrown #makersgonnamake (at Brockley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBVLKieDEdM/?igshid=xo1kiu0nuqep

Totally new ground for me! A Roman style beaded rim vessel made with the clay I excavated from OmVed gardens. Highgate was home to one of the largest Roman potteries found in the UK and as well as being made from the same clay the form of this pot has been directly influenced by the pots that were made there. The pottery Specialised in making vessels and utensils for food and drink which links very well to the sites current use. I will also be using some of the Victorian/Georgian spoons that were found on site as the handles for the lids on these pots to further represent the historical social culinary narrative that flows strong through the OmVed Gardens site. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 they fire OK #roman #romanpottery #beadedrim #romanpottery #foodjar #food #pottery #wildclay #terracotta #terracottapots #spoons #highgateromankiln #romankiln #romanhistory #omved #thrown #clay (at Brockley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBNYBlxD-qq/?igshid=17g1knb66vqjg
