Penguin pourers Mark III.





It's interesting how you can think you've made something that's as good as it's going to get. Then the next lot make them look daggy. It almost makes me think I should just make them for myself. I am still haunted by some of the first ceramics I made. I gave them to family and friends. I was proud of them at the time, but, with good intention, they come out at social events and horrify me. I had the pleasure of finding some of these early pieces in my Brothers kitchen in Copenhagen; what must those style conscious Danes think of my tentative early pieces?
I'm puzzled by the realisation that I will look back at these little penguin pourers and think them daggy too.
I'm hopeful that perhaps this time it might take a little longer. I really like these ones.
