Based in Sheffield, Ben Hall’s ceramic creations emerge from his ‘melody shed.’ A multi-disciplinary artist, his work reflects the English folk tradition. In Ben’s collection of joyful tableware, gull motifs emerge from a layer of blue slip patterning beneath a transparent glaze, created using the sgraffito technique.
Stoneware mug made in Sheffield by potter, illustrator, and musician Ben Hall. Hand-thrown on a wheel and shaped into a low, wide vessel with a pulled handle. Ben creates the gull motifs using the sgraffito method, by scratching away a layer of blue slip, before coating the mug in a transparent glaze.
