About MeThis slim porcelain beaker is wheel-thrown and has distinct potting rings. It is glazed in a cream celadon combined with a matt brown brushed glaze on the exterior. A small vertical resist stripe through the brown glaze creates a minimalist pattern.Daniel Smith studied at Harrow School of Art before setting up his own pottery in south London. He makes a range of elegant hand-thrown porcelain domestic wares including bowls, mugs, cups and jugs.
