This video is a masterclass in pottery! Your detailed explanation of each step, from throwing the espresso cups to making and using a chuck for trimming, is incredibly informative. It's fascinating to see the precision and care that goes into every part of the process, especially your method for calculating clay shrinkage. Your experience really shines through, and it's inspiring to see the techniques you’ve developed over the years. Looking forward to more videos like this! Keep up the amazing work! 👏👏
I’m transfixed watching you work. Such simple shapes, and yet they require tiny, delicate, extremely precise movements to create. Then, enough strength and balance to move an entire board of them. What you do isn’t easy, sir. Bravo
Your videos are always so detailed and technical. Fantastic! I've never had a pottery lesson and have learnt through lockdown from RUclips videos like yours. Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge! So refreshing 👍
I definitely agree with your ending statement. It is very pleasing to look at a row of your finished work. I always enjoy the wide shots that show your studio with pottery in various stages.
On the topic of coffee, have you ever tried throwing coffee drippers? I think they would be so pretty in your style! Anyways, love your videos, keep up the good work!
I've considered it! I guess it sort of relates to how I drink coffee in reality, which is usually French press, espresso or filter into a Chemex, so I've rarely used individual drippers myself, I quite like the idea of making a Chemex/dripper combination though-something to add to my endless list of pots to make 😬
Absolutely love these videos! As a new pottery student I find them invaluable in putting the pieces together. I watch a couple videos before each class and then try to (very roughly) imitate your techniques. Thank you!
As always, amazing video. I always love hearing your thought processes and it's always so well said. I also wanted to point out a small math error you made in "reverse engineering" how tall you should throw! The reverse operation of 12% shrinkage isn't adding back 12% of the final height, since 12% of the fired height is less than 12% of the thrown height. That is, what you're adding back is less than what you initially took away. Instead you need to ask "6.5 cm is 12% less than what?" In math, that's 6.5 = (1 - 0.12) * h. Then we get 6.5 = 0.88 * h. We can divide both sides by 0.88 and get height = 6.5 / 0.88 = 7.39cm. So in this case it didn't make that much of a difference, but it's still worth noting!
Your channel is absolutely incredible and delightful Florian, thank you! I started a throwing course about a month ago and am really enjoying the learning process. The amount of knowledge you share in these videos and the high quality output of them, I have never really encountered on RUclips before. Thanks again and I am really glad to have found your channel!
Can you make a short video about the difference between types of clay? I never really understand how they differentiate and why some people prefer one over the other. As always, your videos are splendid! Thank you for all the knowledge and insight into the life of a potter.
Thank you so much for your videos. I admire and aspire to achieve your level of craftmanship! I always learn a ton from your videos...often the small things that make such a difference in the final pieces. Your approach, your calm zen manner...no wonder you're almost at 200K subscribers! Wishing you continued success.
Oh I love these. I've always been interested in pottery; probably could've been a good potter if life didn't get in the way. As it stands, I'm in year two of med school so I don't have the time to learn. I do hope to get into the craft in the future. I just like doing creative things with my hands; makes me feel more grounded to this spinning rock we call home. Thank you for sharing. Keep 'em coming.
I'm right there with you, man. One or two years away from qualifying as an architect and I am now carefully planning out my impending beginning in pottery. All the best
Absolutely stunning. I enjoy drinking espresso a lot, and I hope to get the chance to taste my Sunday morning beverage out of one of your great pieces.
This is so relaxing and so nice to watch! Love it, you're amazing, such quality in everything... It makes me wanna try this kind of stuff! Congratulations for your work, keep it up!
love watching you work! Im wearing blisters from throwing clay and learning how to centre! Hmmm too much grog I think..... and not the kind from the bottle lol :) You set the bar high but keep me inspired to keep going ! :)
love your work like always. done perfectly with satisfaction, its simply beautiful. I wish to begin working on the wheel someday soon too and have a studio like yours. thank you for sharing your knowledge and inspiring others.
I'm a huge fan of your work, and really appreciate all of the content that you create. Just a quick note on your shrinkage math: for 12% shrinkage, you should be taking your fired dimension and dividing by .88 to get the as-thrown dimension, not multiplying by 1.12. If you think about the math behind what's happening, as-thrown*0.88 = fired, so as-thrown=fired/0.88. You can check this pretty quickly for your 100mm test ruler. 88/.88=100, but calculating it the way you mentioned would give 88*1.12=98.56mm. It's not a huge difference, especially if you're leaving some extra clay for trimming, but it could be an issue if you're trying to recreate something that needs really tight tolerances.
Nice, I also made a ruler to study clay shrinkage. I also made a whistle and the tone it produced between green and glazed was noted, averaging an apparent 7.4% +/- 0.8% shrinkage between the two studies.
The video was amazing 😍 I loved the new detail shots and the making of the chack thank you for sharing! all so, can you make a video of the shooting and photographing your work? I would love to see that 😊
Have you ever thought of setting up preorders for pots we see you make? I would love one of those espresso cups, but I'm worried I might miss them in your next shop update! I dabble in ceramics and really enjoy making coffee cups, and this would be great inspiration to have around the house. Love your style btw
Your work and your videos are amazing and inspiring. And your journey to where you are now is rich. Thank you for sharing your processes. I can’t help but wonder if you’ve ever dropped and entire board of completed pieces while transferring them to the shelf. I hope not. But if you have, I can imagine the silence after the crash. It would be like a disturbance in the force. Peace out.
Thank you! And yes... it has happened. Once a board of teapots, once a board of yunomi teacups and finally a board of teaware pieces made by Ken Matsuzaki in Japan. It happens, not much you can do to avoid it in a decade of making, thankfully I've never dropped a board of finished, fired pots. They're always been either bone dry or leather hard, so they're at least recyclable.
It's nice to know that it can happen to the very best out there. I can't help but feel heart broken when I break a piece I worked on for hours, but remembering how it's a natural part of the process makes it easier to focus on working on new pieces and always being as mindful as possible
Always amazed by your crafts & thanks for making such a detailed video. Btw, I'm curious abt your working table, wearboard & other wooden boards in your studio - as it draws moisture from the clay, does it get moldy over time, or how do you prevent it? Thanks.
Hey Florian, great work! I remember in one of your older videos, you had a quote of saying ceramics is the art of moving space or something? How did it go, I'm stumped because it was a beautiful quote.
Realistically these could be thrown off the hump, that may very well be easier but I'm too stuck in my ways of throwing cups one at a time, but I don't mind that, I can be more accurate that way and ultimately trim less. And I'll add in to the stack! One day I may have an intern but I'm still only a few years into running my own business, I still have a lot left to learn before I take on the responsibility of someone else. Thanks for watching as always! 🙌🏼
I am subscribed to your newsletter for quite some time now, I’ve never received any update and your website is always sold out… Are you selling these somewhere else?
I probably only send out 3 or so newsletters a years, one will be soon! As I’m just about to start firing a ton of work for my shop updates. And no, my work is only sold via my online website, although I do rarely sell with Make, Hauser & Wirth and I may have a few pots available at the Joanna Bird Gallery, although I’m not entirely sure what left there!
I tried emulating this video in my studio because I found it so inspiring… Three small lumps on and I had to switch back to the hump I am accustomed to. Though I can throw in numbers I cannot bring myself to throwing identical ones. I find myself throwing lots of brother and sisters but never manage identical twins. I can only blame this on my nature
I swear Florian, if I don't get a pair of these Expresso cups when they go live I'm going to angry cry everywhere! (Missed the small cups on the website, please tell me these aren't them)
Don't blame me if they sell out quickly! It isn't my fault if they do 😬 these aren't the small coffee cups, these are even littler but that brings a good point, perhaps I should sell these in groups of 2-3, rather than individually, that way people might have a greater change of acquiring a set.
Hey I just wanted to comment this on your most recent video so you can see it, but is there any way that you could start using more environmentally friendly packaging? There is this called honeycomb packaging and all it is, is a paper ish material that can be recycled and I’m pretty sure composted. I don’t know if it would work because you need to make sure the pieces are packaged well so they don’t break, but I was just wondering instead of the plastic.
Way ahead of you! I've already ordered rolls of the honeycomb stuff and tissue paper and paper tape of a different kind, (hopefully my printed labels will stick on it this time), but I have a few giant old larger rolls of bubble and foam and things that I've been slowly working my way through, I'm not going to just throw that away. I also reuse and recycle a mountain of packaging from friends, neighbours and so on, stuff that would otherwise just be recycled normally, so at least that's getting a second use, I just hope the people on the receiving end do away with it nicely.
Here’s a good link to an article that goes into more depth about it, ceramicartsnetwork.org/ceramics-monthly/ceramics-monthly-article/Techno-File-Dirty-Dishes, and clears up some of the misconceptions that are spread around. As long as you properly wash crazed pottery there is no bacteria left in the crackles. As long as you take time to care for your handmade ceramics after they’ve been used then they’ll be just fine, but of course it does depend on the materials used and temperatures fired to. I’ve been using crackle glazed ceramics for years. My pots are highly fired stoneware with nothing nasty that could leech, the crackling doesn’t stain too badly as long as it’s properly washed but of course it happens overtime. To the same degree, many of the potters I’ve worked for over the years who wood fire, soda fire and so on, all have work that crazes and crackles to some degree and it all stains with time, yet functional work is still made abundantly and is completely usable. I saw this in Japan especially, with so many functional tableware pieces that were crackled/crazed and stained and no body blinks an eye, nor do you hear of an excessive amount of people getting ill. My clay is fully vitrified after being fired to 1300ºC and unless you take terrible care of your ceramics you’ll be perfectly healthy. Other clays, like earthenware, never fully vitrify and will absorb water if not glazed properly, that can be issue. For industrial use it could be a problem, due to the surface of the pot having less strength, long-term staining with use and fragility, as it’s high fired stoneware packed full of iron, which makes it weaker and more susceptible to chipping on the whole, but that’s what you get with handmade ceramics, I don’t want to make pots that have perfect, uniform surfaces like you might find in a shop, I want each to be individual and interesting and handmade and I suppose the same goes for the generations of potters who’ve worked all over the world. I think certain parts of the world, I won’t say which, seem to have a fixation on this. And of course it is the potter’s responsibility to provide surfaces that are food safe, but in most cases that applies to the leaching of toxic materials, not staining itself. Hot dishwater water and soak will kill anything in the crackles, and they are gaping crevices in bacterial terms. Anyway, I hope this helps!
Kidney or rib, actually, you’re right it is very strange! But I suppose the original metal kidney tools do look just like a two dimensional kidney, the organ. No idea of the origins of the names beyond that.
Your calculations aren’t quite correct, I’m afraid. The way you’re doing it, you’re multiplying by 1.12, when you should actually be dividing by 0.88. The difference is subtle in this case (1/0.88 ≈ 1.14), but if the shrinkage is larger you’ll have a bigger discrepancy
@@floriangadsby Fortunately for you, the correct calculation is even easier than what you were doing: just divide by 0.[the length of the ruler after shrinkage], and you’re done!
Thankfully for you I upload a version of each video without any narration, just look for the titles labelled with ASMR. They’re simply have the sounds from the studio. The videos with a voice over are meant to be as informative about the process as possible, I get that isn’t for everyone but luckily I provide both options, both the narrated and unnarrated.
You (and a pottery date night) have inspired me to take a six week pottery course at a local university - thank you!

I could be wrong, but it looks like that glaze has crazing, which if that’s the case means they’re not food safe. Awesome video though.
Here’s a good link to an article that goes into more depth about it, ceramicartsnetwork.org/ceramics-monthly/ceramics-monthly-article/Techno-File-Dirty-Dishes, and clears up some of the misconceptions that are spread around.

The videos with a voice over are meant to be as informative about the process as possible, I get that isn’t for everyone but luckily I provide both options, both the narrated and unnarrated.
