“Nestled at the far end of the stables courtyard, A.M.Ceramic’s space is a working studio during the week; all the surfaces are taken over while the pieces are made by Anna. During open days, finished work is available to view and purchase but also for people to gain an insight into a small working pottery.”
About A.M.Ceramic
My Edinburgh Studio is set within the beautiful leafy grounds of Newhailes House and Gardens. Here I create contemporary pottery using a combination of hand building and wheel throwing. The special thing about handmade pottery is that no two pieces are exactly alike, making them completely unique and special.
My colour palette started with cobalt blue and white which I have always been drawn to in pottery, the use of cobalt blue dates back to the 8th century and has been used in many different styles of functional and decorative ceramics. I have been working with colour in different ways some precise hand painted styles and some more abstract. Shades of green & turquoise have become regular features in my work, I continue to experiment & build on ideas and newly learned techniques.
The studio is open a couple of days a week for people to see and purchase my latest work and have a look around the studio. You can find me within the Stables courtyard of Newhailes House and Gardens, it is a special place with a long history dating back to 1686 now looked after by The National Trust For Scotland. There are beautiful walks around the Estate grounds, tours of the Palladian style house as well as a cafe in the stables courtyard.
