The richness of the North Wales landscape has never failed to inspire David Frith - it is where he started his workshop with his wife Margaret some forty years ago.
His work explores the thrown form - searching for that essence - a quality that survives time and where the traditional and contemporary meet. Pieces are individual, often on a large scale and include platters, bottles, ginger jars, store jars, pressed and extruded dishes. He likes flat surfaces which enhance innovative decorative techniques. He uses celadons, ashes and iron rich glazes combined with wax motifs, heavy overglazes and trailed pigments with the added gift of wood firing.
David hopes that the work shows an individuality and maturity that comes from experience, self confidence and personal conviction about the current role of a craftsman and potter.
