Oooh, I like Denby pottery. It's probably about four years since I was last in the Denby shop.

That's it, Daz, get yourself a potter's wheel and we'll be placing orders.

Just wondered what they may have available on Ebay.

Also, came across this website - http://www.ukpotters.co.uk/

Might be the place to start, they have a discussion forum so you could always ask on there.

Good luck )t'

My boss makes sculptures and takes them to her sculpture evening class at the college to use the kiln your local art class or college might let you use theres, whilst they are doing other stuff.
