Brixton  Pottery

Brixton pottery is designed by Alex and Tania Dufort. It is made and decorated entirely by hand in Staffordshire, England using traditional  methods that have changed little in 200 years. The technique used to produce sponge ware probably originated in Crete around 4000 years ago. Fine root sponges are carefully cut into floral , or geometric shapes, dipped in coloured oxides, and applied to the biscuit pottery. No two pieces are exactly the same. Brixton Pottery sponge ware is under glaze decorated, dishwasher-proof, and safe to use in freezer, oven, or microwave oven. By contrast the lustre ware is onglaze decorated and is for decorative purposes only. For more information, descriptions, prices, etc. on each of the pottery ranges simply click on the picture.
