Nic Collins
Anagama Fired Stoneware

Nic Collins is one of the leading UK potters' using wood as a fuel and firing in a anagama type kiln. Nic uses locally sourced North Devon clays, much of his work relies on the ash and flame markings that are a result of four day firings. This type of work is known aa Yohen in Japan. Through a long and protracted firing Nic achieves the build up of the ask glaze and the flame flash colour on his pots.

Oakwoodceramics are delighted to exhibit teabowls by Nic Collins. These two bowls were personally selected by Nic and are two exceptionally good pieces. Both have a shino glazed interior.
