Kate Sampson Ceramics

Discover Kate Sampson Ceramics handcrafted pottery inspired by the natural world and ancient folk art.

Kate’s ceramic work focuses on traditional wheel thrown forms which are brought to life with intricate hand illustrated decoration. She throws using stoneware, earthenware, or porcelain, working into the clay using an array of decorative materials and techniques including coloured slips, ceramic pencils, oxides, glazes, paper cut outs, wax resist, and sgraffito. Themes are centred around a joyous appreciation for the natural world and reflect my love of traditional folk art and historical craft.

Based in rural Kent she works from her garden studio, taking seasonal inspiration from the native plants and wildlife surrounding her. All pieces are crafted and decorated by hand meaning no two are ever exactly the same.
