Leeds Pottery Open Work Egg Cup

Openwork is the latest range of creamware to be added to Hartley Green's pottery collection.

The Openwork pattern is an entirely new design with a slightly more modern feel than the rest of the collection, yet still embracing the elegance and classical looks of the more historic pieces, its inspiration coming there from.

As with all of the other pieces, each Openwork piece of pottery maintains its own identity as it passes through the experienced hands of Hartley Green's potters. Every detail of the manufacturing process is meticulously controlled by the pottery's quality control routines, from the raw clay stage, through moulding to intricate piercing, to glazing, all crafted by hand. It takes a keen eye and a very steady hand to delicately form the clay into the beautiful pattern of the finished piece.
