- This video tells the tale of the throwing, trimming and handling of these simple, stoneware espresso cups. I discuss how I manage working on 100+ pieces at a single time, and how important proper drying is. I hope you like it and apologies for the jump-scare about halfway through... THANKS for watching!

The more pottery I produce, the more I'm amazed by your work. By happenstance, I'm currently working on a set of ~50 espresso cups (without handles) for a friend. While I'm reasonably happy with my cups, your exacting standards, clear intention, and precision in every step are all profoundly inspiring for my own continued improvement. I owe your instruction far too much thanks for a comment to express, but thank you anyways! I look forward to your book!
Thank you so much Tanner! Seriously, you're far too kind. I appreciate you taking your time to watch, that along is thanks enough, as all the ad revenue from RUclips goes into helping fund my studio and raw materials. I can't wait for the book to be released either! What a joy that'll finally be to share with you all. Take care!
do you have pictures of your work? I'd love to see it!
@@OmaOmaOthere were brief pictures you can freeze frame on the video the one about making teapots from start to finish. There was also a frame showing a whole shelf of his work. It’s practical useful pieces which I really like. Have a look through that video and you can see pieces.
I'm not a potter, but have bought 25lbs of clay looking for inspiration to start. I am a chocolatier by learned passion and have made thousands of bonbons, all hand touched. There is something to be said about making 100+ things by hand look exactly the same, and my process had about 8 different steps to get my finished product. Your video reminded me of that and and patience it takes to get there. When a hobby becomes a passionate business you do what is necessary. Your finishing skills set you apart! Thank you for sharing!
Your care and precision in not only your pottery work, but also videography and story telling is a wonderful weekly experience that I always look forward to. Thank you so much
Well said, me too!
I'm not a potter, but I do struggle with finishing projects. Your tenacity for this huge project encouraged me! ❤
Florian, I am a wood worker and boat builder who came to your video's via Alex. I was constantly in awe of how you use your hands as precision tools and your set ups for consistency. I have a wide variety of mostly antique hand tools that i use in a multitude of ways to achieve the desired results in my craft, but I can't tell you how many times my jaw dropped during this video. You are a highly calibrated machine, but so much more than that because you have the human touch. I believe the hand finishing imprints your signature all over a piece and your style is all of these. Thank you for sharing your skills, one day I will be enjoying my coffee from one of your cups.
that jump-scare was outstanding!
Making pottery is peaceful they said.
I follow several potters and pottery enjoyers and a lot of them are very good! But none are the perfectionist that you are, and sometimes? You spoil me. Your work just has that extra touch of satisfying perfection that only comes with years and years of training and hard work, and it shows ❤
Hope Ciro's okay! That scream was very upsetting and I think we all had a jump scare 😂
You have the cleanest and neatest Pottery Studio! These expresso cups are adorable.❤
This video was recommended to me by the algorithm. Even though I have never done any claywork, I'm interested in various forms of artisanal craftsmanship. I work with wood and metals myself. And most importantly I love my espresso. The quality of your video and the content you provided is fantastic. You, my friend, have just earned yourself another subscriber. Keep up the good work.
As a future formal student of pottery, I'm inspired by your work and hope to achieve the incredible level of craftmanship you so generously share with us! Thank you! I love your content and I'm anxiously waiting for my copy of your book to arrive once it's released :)
No one is talking about the opera singer, and its making 10x funnier than it already was😂❤
How could I possibly not get to the end?!!! Riveting, to say the least. And the pots are perfect. You ARE in control of every tiny stage--and, at the end of this video, you are less than halfway done! You leave us on the edge of our seats.
I love to watch your videos, but especially on nights where I can't sleep. Your voice is so soothing and all of the calm, precise, smooth movements of your hands relax me. Thanks for the fantastic content, as always 🖤
Once again your video reminds me that the making of a successful pot is not as much in the throwing it on the wheel but in the slow drying, working on the piece in multiple sessions and the careful eye to detail. Someone told me this week to treat each piece as if it's a masterpiece. You definitely do this and I definitely need to work on this more. Thanks for another great video.
Wow, just hearing the phrase "damp cupboard" took me back nearly 30 years to my school pottery lessons :)
As always, lots of little nuggets of clay wisdom revealed in this start-to-finish video.
I made it to the end. Pottery isn't my main interest, so I wasn't sure why YT recommended this, but I love manufacturing. I like making things and making many things, which is its own skill. This was great. You have excellent consistency and workflow.
I'm definitely buying your book for my ceramics teacher & best friend going to college to study ceramics, we've all been watching your videos and you often come up in class when we're spinning. You're tips and tricks are invaluable to our work and how we create our pieces now.
How kind of you! Thanks so much, Charlie. Pleased to have you following and watching my videos, it means an awful lot.
I've moved back to my hometown where pottery is inaccessible. I did a beginner course and practiced almost all of last month and feel as though it wasn't enough and I it was just the start of something fulfilling!
Watching your work still feels like I'm in that class and it'd just nice to have a connection to pottery even though I can't do it now. Thank you as always for your generosity. Praying for your continued success.
That amount of cups would take me about a month, and there would not be as much consistency. Your work is always so perfectly done, and your voice is so calming.
0:55 im alrEADY BLOWN AWAY BY THE GUEST FEATURE
Your work seems to be done very clearly and very cleanly. It is a very good example for beginners.
I'm not sure how people like you function, skilled and disciplined workers in love with their craft, satisfied by the work itself and not just by the end of it and the reward of it.
I'm personally appalled by the ridiculous lengths we've gone to, to ensure so many people have work to do, whether it is useful work or not. Whether they sell wasteful polluting junk or not.
I can appreciate that you've found a way to create objects that are pretty useful, and that you're enjoying it. Personally I find myself wasting steel and energy on massive, ugly, costly decor.
And I do not enjoy it much at all, much like I have never enjoyed any line of work in my entire life.
These are so amazing. It's so peaceful to watch you work.
I'd love to see more videos of big batches like this!
I love that moment of taking a step back and admiring 100 of the things you made, all nicely lined up.
Your meticulous and methodical approach is always an inspiration! Thanks for the post.
It’s very useful for me. I don’t know why my handle of the mug always broken until I saw your video. It’s the way of drying are wrong.
Hi I just found you on RUclips and I’m a novice RUclipsr ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ I’m not a potter but I absolutely in love with pottery. I do small creations using air dry clay. I watched your video from the beginning till the end and I can say that you are a hardworking master potter. Keep shining every day and I wish you good luck with your own book 🌷
Thank you for making these incredibly detailed and useful videos! I'm so grateful I came across your channel.
they look gorgeous, can't wait to see them completed. I'm a Culinary Arts teacher and i can't ever explain to my students how important things like plates and cups really are. these look so great. I'd 100% love to buy a set for my class/dining room.
Thank you for another video Florian :) Of course I watch every one of them until the end. The tidying up is one of the best parts. It is so satisfactory to see you leave your workshop spotless.
You're so welcome! Thanks for taking the time to watch.
watched all the way through, it was awesome to watch. I love the leather hard chuck and how you keep it for months or longer, very educational. Thank You, I'm hoping to run into more of your videos.
clay is just mesmerizing and those cups are pieces of art
One off work has something exciting, but doing a batch also feels very nice because you get to hone your process and learn how to do things better, faster, nicer.
Of course I made it to the end. I mention you to all my pottery friends. Thanks for your inspirational videos.
i love your vidoes! ive started watching about two years ago. you have helped me a lot in my jurny with ceramics. thank you!
Im just about to finish the first ever ceramics class I've taken and honestly it's my favorite thing I've ever done. Your videos are so inspiring and informative I love them so much, you're everything I hope to become one day.
Just here enjoying your calm demonstration... and then the dramatic singing comes outta nowhere 8:00 😂 Thanks for the clarification. Must be motivational to live/work near others in different fields of art-- regardless if its performance, fine, etc.
I sadly have never done, nor will probably have the chance to make pottery, but your videos are so inspirational as a demonstration of craftsmanship and pride in your work. Keep it up!
Always such a pleasure to see you working. Thank you for sharing your tips as well. ✨
I loved it so much, thanks for what you made me feel, I really appreciate your work, it's full of patience and needs a lot of concentration. ❤❤
Haven’t done Pottery in over 8 years, this makes me want to get back into it
The thought process and attention to detail is what I love about the way you work, Florian. And your passion is evident in every single piece, man.
Keep it up 😊😊😊
PS. Will definitely be grabbing a copy of your book 😊😊
love these videos! thank you for your hard work and for sharing it with us
A wonderful first video of yours to watch! Great to see a whole honest process of pottery, and looking forward to watching more!
Wow! Love your work
Better and better. Your video and your work are so good. So till the end. Grateful
Such an inspiring, calming and great pleasure to watch! I have not endeavored into pottery yet as I am quite occupied with learning to knit these days. But the craftyness hits a nice spot in me.
Keep up the good work 🙏🏻
Yes, made it till the end, first video of you popping up in my timeline :D
I definitely made it to the end! Watching the clean-up process brings a calm to my day! I love that you do ASMR versions too! Your videos have definitely been helping me, as a very beginner, learn some more basic techniques for throwing. I'm a mess so far, but every chance at the wheel is good practice. Thank you!
I enjoyed watching to the end. I learned some tips and I appreciate all the details you shared. Thank you!
Made it to the end! I learn so much from your videos, thanks!
Very inspiring to see so many of one simple thing being made with the detail and presicion I could only affoard one project.
I really love your content, a great start to a peaceful Sunday!
I'm saving for a wedding, but I'm definitely taking a little from my next paycheck to pre-order your book! I love your content and the wares that you produce are so beautiful. I'd love to own a set of your cups one day!!
Thank you for this video. I very much appreciate your attention to detail! And if you can keep your workstation that clean after such long days of throwing, so can I. Thanks for the inspiration!
This was a brilliant tutorial. You really thought this out and explained your process so very well. Your workmanship is amazing and I just loved my visit to your studio…loved your little friend too❣️ Thanks so much.
Thank you so much Florian, I watched the video till the end, your works inspire me and I learned a lot from you, I would love to have one of your works.
With full respect of your craft and work, your intellectual and creative skill... Those are way too big cups for espresso, but very nice process indeed.
Thanks so much, well, these will shrink by 12%, so they may be more appropriate. I do mention in the video that they’re more like “mini-mugs’ due to their size but let’s see. I’ve had a LOT of espresso in cups that are too big during my travels around the world and in Italy, where the espresso is just a pool in the bottom of the cup, it doesn’t need to fit it perfectly. Anyway, the title of the video really was to just give it some context, as opposed to just tiny cups!
amazing to watch, such a comforting film. your artistic skills go beyond pottery!
watched through the whole thing ✨
Such an amazing artist!
I did make it to the end and this is wonderful, superb and brilliant. The combination of manual and precision work fascinates me. A bit like making sushi in a very weird way. The combination of simplicity and sophistication, I suppose.
First time I landed on your channel, I watched all the way till the end, very satisfying :)
these are gorgeous.
Thanks! I can’t tell you how much your videos help.
THANK YOU! What a kind gift, I can't tell you how much that means.
Ty I’m now the goddess of making cup and teapots
Awesome insights on your handling process,🙌
So well done....neat and tidy!! 👍
God bless ya for pulling all of those handles. I've never been a huge fan of making them, either by way of throwing, by pulling, or by rolling.
There is nothing I would love to see more than if you made a bonsai pot!
Love your videos, and yes, I watched to the end. Thank you!
Cant wait for part 2 !!1
I love these contents so much
What a soothing video!❤
This is awesome, I watched all the way through! Will definitely be buying some when you restock
You are very inspiring. I’m very interested in pottery because this channel. I will try pottery in the near future!
ridiculously impressive as always.
Fascinating!
I made it till the end! Very detailed work. Love it! I want to make my maker's mark like yours! I bought one from etsy but I don't like how it turned out. I don't know if I can make one like yours. Anyway, thank you so much for putting together these videos. Really appreciate all of them. Thank you and Merry Christmas!!
Amazing!
Crikey. Subscribed.
(lovely videography and narration, thank you)
very cool. thank you.
I’m so glad I caught this video! I am hoping to try and make some of these for my sister in law for Christmas! I say try as I’m only a beginner! Lol😂 probably lay will look nothing like!
Hanging on to the end, no worries!
Thanks for explaining your thoughts about producing a large number of identical items -- listen at 19:30
I am always amazed by your videos. They are SO thorough, SO well scripted, and so well video'd. I'd really love, and appreciate, your thoughts, insights, maybe even suggestions about all the artistic methods and varying materials for producing unusual, artistic and visually captivating glazing. Thank you!
wow i am hoping to be able to production throw like that one day!
wow amazing
Merci beaucoup. Quel plaisir de vous voir travailler.
Next time when I drink an espresso, I will not only appreciate the espresso but also the espresso cup.
Awesome, great video! ☕ ☕ ☕
Oh shit yeah! Thank you for your amazing work and sharing this.
I must admit this is not at all what I expected from the title! It was a very nice video though and I did make it all the way through. But I was wondering if you ever considered making meditative videos of just quiet process of creation with no commentary. I feel like that would be amazing to have on the background as if working together with a friend :)
Thanks so much for taking the time to do these videos, they're incredibly helpful. Can I ask, what type of wood you use for your boards and wedging table?
I made it to the end!
Could you please, if you haven't already, do a video on chucks? The one you use for your mugs seems quite helpful for trimming! Thanks for all your work and sharing ❤
I believe I've already made a video on them, it also involves espresso cups actually, you can watch it here: ruclips.net/video/oCmGnGLrfXI/видео.html
@@floriangadsby thank you 😊
You make it easy to make it to the end.
Amazing work, Florian! I will start ceramic class next month. I'm excited for what is to come. I enjoy very much your work, your teachings, and the techniques you have. May God bless you and the amazing art you do! Have a wonderful Christmas season! Will your book be sold down here in Brazil? I'd love to have a copy of it! Cheers!🎉❤
Of course I made it to the end, I ALWAYS DO!
i made it to the end!
