Juris Bergins

Post by bistoboy on Sun Jul 12, 2009 9:05 pm

hi all, bought all this last weekend at a carboot sale - included was a teaset for two that i fell in love with because of its quirkiness. It looks like it was inspired by limpits and molluscs etc. A google search for the pottery didn't throw up much but what it did was really cool - some highly original contemporary art from a Latvian ceramic artist called Juris Bergins.

I love the teaset Bisto

Did we see that turquoise vase before? It looked like Anglian Pottery until I saw the base.
