The Ceramics Market is a varied collection of ceramics works by members of the Kent Potters Association. The market is now in its third year following a very successful first year in 2024. The organiser of the fair is Ian Ramage in collaboration with Kent Potters Association and the events organiser of 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 both days. At this market I will be selling many new and exciting designs including cake stands, mugs and a new range of decorative bowls 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.

Each piece of pottery is glazed by hand resulting in each piece being unique and many of my pieces are one-off designs.

Millbrook Pottery is made by Peter Curtis who began making pottery more than 47 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 fired to 1230 centrigrade. which means that they are oven, dishwasher, microwave and freezer safe and in the case of garden sculpture frostproof. 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
