Emily Woolford

I work from a small home studio in Oxfordshire creating unique pieces hand thrown on my pottery wheel and also some built by hand.

My love of pottery began in school many years ago but it wasn’t until 2019 that I attended a few refresher classes before purchasing a secondhand wheel and kiln. Since then I have been mainly self-taught, continuously practising and learning! All my pieces are made from stoneware clay with the process taking approximately 4 weeks, from a ball of clay to the final glazed product.

I am married with 3 children and alongside making ceramics I work part-time as a nursing assistant in a busy children’s ward. When at home and not in my studio I am also taking care of my 2 donkeys, a tortoise and a miniature goldendoodle!
