Potters Extraordinaire



Local Potters
Katie Gold and Owen Bartlett
 
 
 
 
Via Nelson Potters
 
 
 
 
There is an amzing local potter called  Katie Gold, who along with her husband  Owen Bartlett produce some of the most original works that I have ever seen. They work together in the most enchanting setting in Upper Moutere Village - a true paradise.






Welcome to the studio



I visited their studio this week and was blown away by the magical works and location. Do take a look and be amazed ...






Views to die for

Katie's husband Owen Bartlett is also an accomplished potter and also produces some colourful works, which are sold throughout the area. I particularly like his spotty wares and stick figures.
