Studio Palette
A closer look at the colours, textures and finishes that shape The Potters Hideaway.
Woodland Green
Woodland Green is a rich, earthy glaze inspired by moss-covered woodland floors. Its deep green finish brings natural warmth and depth to ceramic pieces, with subtle variation that gives every surface a beautifully handmade character.
April Rain
A soft white glaze kissed with delicate blue speckles — like spring showers drifting across meadows and cabin windows. Each piece carries its own rain‑washed pattern, gentle and unpredictable, celebrating the calm after the storm.
Coastal Blue
A soft, sea‑washed blue shaped by Cornish tides and quiet shoreline mornings. This glaze drifts from pale aqua into deeper ocean tones, settling in gentle waves across each piece — like water brushing over smooth pebbles. It carries a breezy calm, a little salt‑air serenity, and the feeling of standing barefoot at the edge of the tide.
Wild Plum
A rich berry‑plum glaze with warm, earthy undertones — like dusk settling over woodland berries and autumn hedgerows. Soft transitions of purple, brown, and blue‑violet flow across each piece, creating a moody, dramatic finish that feels both bold and beautifully grounded. No two pieces ever settle the same, giving every mug or bowl its own twilight character.
Fern Mist
A soft, meadow‑green glaze brushed with gentle pink blush — like early spring ferns catching the first warm light. Speckles settle across the surface in a natural, earthy pattern, giving each piece a quiet, botanical charm. It’s a glaze that feels fresh, delicate, and a little whimsical, perfect for pieces that echo garden mornings and woodland calm.
Rosewood Bloom
A warm pink glaze brushed with soft white flecks — like early spring blossoms scattered across woodland paths. Gentle shifts of rose, cream, and blush settle in flowing patterns, giving each piece a romantic, storybook charm. It’s a glaze that feels tender, whimsical, and quietly joyful, perfect for pieces that echo cottage gardens and soft morning light.
One-Off Glaze Experiments
A collection of spontaneous glaze tests, happy accidents, and creative wanderings — each one capturing a moment of curiosity in the studio. These pieces explore unexpected colour blends, flowing patterns, and playful contrasts, revealing the magic that happens when glaze, clay, and kiln heat decide to collaborate in their own way.
Every experiment carries its own personality: soft lilacs drifting into plum, meadow greens brushed with pink, warm rosewood flecks, and ocean blues fading into deep tide‑pools. They’re the glazes that may one day return as limited mug runs, seasonal drops, or special editions — but for now, they live here as a celebration of discovery
