Catherine Field is the maker behind the Splendid Wren Ceramics range of handmade homewares from Bondi Beach, Australia which focuses on functional simplicity. Her pieces are made using traditional hand building techniques from a range of stoneware clays. They are then high fired to stoneware temperatures to ensure their durability. No two pieces are the same. They feature natural, earthy glazes and often there will be a finger print or makers mark to remind users that it was made by hand.
Her work is available at: The Australian Design Centre, Commune Bondi, The DEA Store (East), Orchard Street, Michael Reid Clay, We Are Mindful, Paperbark Camp and on her website.

Ceramics workshops are the ideal activity for a group to participate in, perfect for bonding, team building or celebration where each participant will create their own piece/s which will be glazed and fired and available for collection approximately 4 weeks after the workshop.

Had a great class with Catherine, she was patient and kind. We made a vase and thanks to her i will have a great present for my wife.

This was a delightful experience. Catherine was incredibly encouraging and stepped us expertly through the process. The venue is a real potters collective with working kilns, pottery wheels and a studio style space. A great way to spend a couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon.

Catherine was an exceptional teacher and so lovely. I really enjoyed the tour of the pottery studio! The environment was relaxing and very Covid safe.
I loved experimenting with different materials to create various shapes for my mug and bowl. (I also loved that Catherine was very encouraging when I told her I wanted to put boobies on my mug.)
It has definitely awakened a pottery bug in me so I think I will be making more pottery in the future!
Thank you for the wonderful experience! Xx
