Diana is a London-based designer and maker of unique ceramic boxes, dishes, jewellery and tiles.
Diana’s work is hand-made from white earthenware paper clay, which is used in thin textured slabs. These are stretched into pillow and curved forms and made into boxes, dishes, lamps, jewellery and tiles. Using paper clay allows this stretching to take place without tearing, but does mean that dishes are porous and for decorative use only.
The rich colours derive from the slips, shiny glazes and under-glaze colours used. Diana’s interest in textiles, shells, seed-pods and small precious containers such as reliquaries inform and inspire her work. The work is glaze-fired to 1120 degrees in an electric kiln.
