Slipware Large Jug

Mike Parry specialises in characterful, down-to-earth slipware – just like this large jug, hand-thrown in red earthenware from his home studio in Pontypool, South Wales. The flowing form is a pleasure to hold and use, whether you’re filling it with homemade punch or a freshly picked bouquet. To add character, he’s opted for a swirled effect and a subtly varying colour palette, details that nod to his interest in medieval pottery and 18th-century English slipware.
