Get this name on your radar girls, as Katy Leigh is set put the cool back in ceramics. Hailing from the land of 'The Potteries' (Stoke-on-Trent), Katy's illustrative designs ooze character and charm. She manages to inject personality into regular, run-of-the-mill crockery items by decorating them with quirky wide-eyed faces that peer out at you, knowingly.
Her current work is hand painted onto bisque ware, dip glazed and fired - resulting in a unique piece of art that's practical, as well as pretty. Respectable receptacles, if you will. My favourite being the salt and pepper pots - I can imagine this pair having a gossip on my kitchen worktop whilst I rustle up a ragù.
You can view Katy's items for sale on her website, then contact her directly for further info and ways to purchase. Go take a look - I reckon you'll be bowled over. Heh.
