Unique Handmade Bespoke Beautiful
Hey, Liza here, aka Pixie, better known as Pixie Pottery. I have had a love for creating art as long as I can remember, but I’ve never been the conventional type. Everything I do is from inside my head, and inspiration through my loves and interests. I’m self taught, like everything i do, and can be very spontaneous. Even I don’t know what the outcome is going to be sometimes.
I started off my creative journey painting pop art and abstracts inspired by my love of music and spirituality. is wasn’t until i got my first kiln that i truly knew what love was. My Kiln is called Karen, and she’s a beauty. With the love of pottery, came the belief in the kiln gods, and their unpredictability.
Where did kiln god originate?
Kiln gods (or goddesses) originated in ancient times when pottery first came about in places like China and Egypt its not exactly clear. They were made from clay left over from the pot or sculpture you are about to fire.
All my work is most earthenware and occasionally stoneware clay, which is fired in Karen, then glazed which is where the magic happens. We are based in Berkshire/Surrey so can be found in craft markets and shops across the 2 counties.
