Jennie Gilbert


Jugs, bowl and cup in ceramic by Jennie Gilbert

Jennie originally trained in Swansea and then undertook a short apprenticeship in the village of La Borne in France, where she started making reduction fired stoneware.

In 1993, she set up her own workshop in Surrey, developing her 'Domestic Range' of Tin Glazed blue and white chequered work and her 'Mishima Range'.

Large bowl by Jennie Gilbert

Jennie moved to Project Workshops in Hampshire in 2001, where she produces an ever increasing range of tableware together with a selection of vases, pitchers, platters, lamp bases, bowls and bistro tables in the distinctive Mishima Range.

Mishima is the inlaying of a contrasting slip into a pattern that has been impressed, stamped, or carved into the clay.

All Jennie’s work is fired to 1280’c in a gas kiln and is suitable for everyday use. She sells her work at a few select craft fairs and galleries and it is in private collections both in the U.K. and abroad. Jennie Gilbert's work is also in the Guildford Borough Collection.

Please bear in mind that the range of stock changes daily, and inclusion of a picture on this site does not mean the item is necessarily in stock.
