Sara Parkins is a retired military veteran turned ceramist residing just outside Chevithorne in Mid Devon. 

She taught herself to throw pots on the wheel in her home studio after attending pottery classes locally and falling in love with clay.

Sara throws a range of functional pieces from stoneware clay. Each piece is meticulously layered with multiple ‘brush-on’ glazes to achieve dynamic movement and colour reactions.

Every piece takes time to produce individually, ensuring that no two pieces are exactly alike. Colour ranges and sizes will always be sisters rather than twins.
