(Andrew Walford with one of his distinctive works, at his studio overlooking the Shongweni Valley)Andrew Walford will hold another of his highly popular Pottery Open Days at the Walford Studio in Shongweni on August 5.
Hear about Andrew's recent trips to Korea and the UK and browse around the exhibition of hundreds of pots. The tables will be laden with hand basins, tiles, splash backs, tea bowls, soup mugs, jumbo and miniature porcelain bowls, Japanese bottles, sculptural vases, stacking boxes, porcelain lidded boxes, Ikebana vases, platters, sushi dishes, teapots, and more …
Meet friends on the lawn over tea and visit the African Frangipani Market to view the Isithebe mats and Zulu beadwork. The Bargain Basement features work by Peter and Christine. Also on offer are home-made cakes and lemonade as well as the famous Open Day breyani.
Walford recently returned from the Mungyeong Tea Bowl Festival in South Korea. This was an international competition and his work was one of 20 international potters to be chosen for inclusion in this prestigious award ceremony. His practice of brush strokes on ceramic for over 40 years was highly acclaimed in the home of ceramics of his genre.
