General

Morgen Hall hand makes decorative tableware which is intended for everyday use.

The work has fine detail and finish on strong, bold forms. A high firing, smooth red earthenware is used, both for its rich cinnamon colouring and for its remarkable durability in use. Decoration with blue slip allows for crisp edged paper resist pattern work, as well as raised surface slip trailed detail under the creamy white tin glaze. Before the glaze firing a rutile based mustard coloured glaze stain is applied.

Cinnamon, oranges, cream and mustard are used to describe the colouring of the work. Food connections are essential. Most of the pieces are specifically designed and inspired by the food for which they are intended.
