Robin Walden

Ceramics

Robin Walden’s table ware is a joy to use. Hand thrown and glazed, sometimes in a wood fired kiln, the pieces are each slightly different and tactile, and each develop a personality with use, and so bring a sense of ritual to the everyday.

My favourite drinking vessels, are stoneware fired in an anagama kiln, which is fed with wood over a long period, giving each piece unique qualities depending on where the flames, smoke and ash touch them. Robin is an alchemist with his work, riding the line between controlling his material and the accidental.
