ISCA Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I went to a Craft Fair today at Bovey Tracey, Devon and had a lovely time (thank you kannie for the tickets!). One of the potters had some wonderful hen sculptures... http://www.orchardpottery.com/hens.html The ones he makes now are more textured and look even better. He was working on one today. The glaze he uses is so crisp and a vibrant red. I couldn't resist so got a couple on order. Once he has made them and sent them I shall post a photo. Just thought some of yu hen obsessed folk might like to see...or even get one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WitchHazel Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 They are lovely! I like his bronze things too, especially hte snail slideing over/downwards. How mych were his hens, if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 They are stunning. I am sure I saw his things at Hampton court flower show last year The hens are lovely, but pricey. You get what you pay for though and they are handmade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISCA Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 He does have a stall at Hampton Court and will be there again this year. They are expensive but he spends hours and hours on a single hen so actually they are a bargain! I am getting a sitting hen and a pecking hen, they look good together and a single hen would get lonely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
