Craft Fair at Coolings Nurseries, Kent TN14 7NN


  • Coolings Nurseries Rushmore Hill, Knockholt Kent TN14 7NN United Kingdom (map)

The craft fair at Coolings is now run by Coolings Nurseries

The craft Fair is open from 10am until 4pm each day . Entry is free to all..

Millbrook Pottery will be for sale on all 3 days. As well as my usual range of pottery which includes noodle/rice bowls, vases, cheese platters, yarn bowls, trinket dishes and for the gardeners amongst you, totem poles, garden flowers, pot covers and hanging baskets there will be many new and exciting designs including cake stands, mugs and a new range of decorative bowls. Each piece of pottery is glazed by hand resulting in each piece being unique and many pieces are one-off designs.

Millbrook Pottery is made by Peter Curtis who began making pottery more than 45 years ago. Originally self taught I was fortunate enough to be mentored by the late Sid Tustin of Winchcombe Pottery for several years.

I work from my garden studios in Beckenham, Kent. The majority of my work is hand thrown using white stoneware clay. I enjoy altering my work in various ways including incising, mark making, cutting and twisting. I decorate my pottery with a mixture of commercial and handmade glazes and sell my work at craft fairs and online in my Etsy Shop.

Before becoming a potter I danced with Ballet Rambert for 11 years, and more recently I danced with the Royal Opera Company for 29 years. Dance has always been a source of inspiration for many of the designs of my pots along with my love of flora and fauna.

I am a member of Kent Potters Association, London Potters and Craft Potters Association
