Emmanuel Cooper

Blog post by Musings About Mud

It is so sad to read of passings.  This blog post from Musings About Mud gives the details regarding two amazing potters.  Although I have never had the pleasure of meeting him or seeing him work, I am sadden by the loss of him to the world of pottery.  He will be missed.
I had just tested a glaze recipe from Emmanuel Cooper – a chun from Peter’s Pottery in NZ.
His book, The Potter’s Book of Glaze Recipes, is highly regarded and a wonderful addition to any potter’s bookshelf.

I especially like this jug and the colour of it!

Rest in peace, dear sir.
