Nic's workshop is now at Penhale Jakes in Ashton, near Helston, where he continues to make an extensive range of useful oven to table, kitchenware and is producing new collections of work for Exhibition, using both Porcelain and Stoneware clays.
His work is firmly rooted in 'The Leach Tradition'. The hand thrown forms show Japanese influences and have integrity and honesty. The use of iron, copper and cobalt oxides produce surface colour inspired by the rugged coastline seen from his workshop. His 27 cubic foot kiln is reduction fired with propane gas to 1300°C.
How to find us Penhale Jakes is 200 yards off the A 394 between Ashton and Breage on the Helston to Penzance Road.
