Emma Saul

Emma Saul · Contemporary ceramics

A little of the wild, brought indoors.

Rough edges, layered surfaces and shapes that feel discovered rather than drawn: Emma Saul’s ceramics invite a closer look. These are pieces to live with slowly, noticing a different curve or patch of glaze as the light moves through your room.

Based in Northampton, Emma studied creative arts and printmaking at Bath Spa University, graduating in 2002. Her practice spans painting, mixed media and ceramics, with landscape and our emotional connection to place running through her work.

In clay, that sense of exploration takes on a new form. Her pottery portfolio includes organic vessels, mixed glazes and pieces incorporating driftwood. She values the unexpected outcomes of making, rather than repeating a fixed design.

Give a sculptural bowl space on a shelf or sideboard, or choose a smaller piece for a corner you see every day. Browse the ceramics below, and ask us if you would like help comparing their scale or finish.
