Nigel Lambert

I bought this lugged bowl from the Juliet Gould Gallery, Mevagissey, Cornwall in 1999 and have never tired of it. I use it in the kitchen all the time and it's survived a lot of ill-use virtually unscathed. It is slip-decorated earthenware, wood-fired according to his website. He was born in 1962 and his studio is in Drybrook, Gloucestershire. The bowl is unmarked which is normal. 6.2cm (height) 21.4cm (diameter).

I and a colleague showed some of Nigel's pots in an exhibition last year and besides the pots appearing to be very tough they are modestly priced and have a vitality about them.

He's also a nice bloke.

That's always a bonus. Though I have to say, I not yet met a grumpy potter

Most potters are extremely nice but there are one or two that can be difficult ............. but my lips are sealed.

a pic of his mark would be great

Nothing on mine. I always show a pic if there is one Dan.

Since working on his own from 1987 he hasn't marked his work.

Picked this up today. Book says his work was marked 1986-87 only. Does that seem right for this? . And is it wood fired?
