Charmain Poole, a potter based in North Wales, has dedicated over 20 years to refining her craft, creating domestic ware that blends functionality with artistic expression. Specialising in red terracotta clay, she skillfully throws each piece by hand, embracing the warmth and character of the material. Her pottery is designed to be used and cherished in everyday life, bringing beauty to simple rituals like sharing a meal or enjoying a quiet cup of tea.

Charmain’s work is distinguished by her use of vibrant slips, which she applies with precision and creativity to enhance the form and surface of each piece. These colourful layers bring depth and movement to her designs, often inspired by traditional techniques yet infused with her own contemporary style. A final coating of clear glaze not only protects the surface but also enriches the natural richness of the terracotta, creating a tactile and visually appealing finish.
