About Me

Sasha has over 40 year’s experience in the world of bone china and porcelain, having studied in two centres of excellence; Stoke on Trent, United Kingdom and Limoges, France.

She has taken elements of this industry and adapted them to a studio environment with her own production which includes bespoke vases, bowls, lighting and tea ware. Sasha has concentrated on perfecting the craft-based skills which enhance the inherent qualities of bone china and her carefully produced distinctive work embraces and reflects contemporary taste and lifestyle. Each piece is individually made using industrial processes that Sasha has personally developed.

Her work found early success in galleries and stores across the world from Liberty’s, Fortnum and Mason’s and the Contemporary Applied Arts Gallery in London to Barneys in Tokyo, The Habitat Centre in New Delhi; The Raglan Gallery in Sydney and The Object Space in Atlanta.

Alongside her own practice she has run workshops dedicated to bone china and mould making for many years in Belgium, Hungary, Australia, South Africa, Canada, India and Japan. She continues to exhibit and sell worldwide and, after running residential mould making and bone china workshops in France for many years, she now runs them from her studio in Wiltshire.

Sasha’s hallmark style, a distinctive combination of pure white slip cast bone china, treated with unique decorating techniques and finished in a carefully chosen palette of muted, subtle colours, has made her work highly sought after by private collectors, museums and contemporary art galleries worldwide. These include CLAY, Museum of Ceramic Art (Denmark); The Grainer Collection , Mint Museum of Craft and Design, Charlotte, N. Carolina (USA); The National Museum of Scotland , Edinburgh (United Kingdom), Museo Nacional de Ceramica, Valencia (Spain) and the National Craft Museum in Seoul (S.Korea).

Commissions include a range of Ikebana vessels for the Takashimaya store, Osaka; a tea ware range for the Rare Tea company; a sculptural piece for the P&O ocean liner ‘Arcadia’ and a range of vessels for the Artisan and Craft range for the National Trust.

Awards have included the Grand Prix at 1st World Triennial of Small Ceramics, Zagreb (Crotia), a diploma at 12th Biennial of Ceramic Art, Vallauris (France), shortlisted for Sydney Myer International Ceramic Award, Shepparton (Australia) and a ‘Crafted’ recipient with Walpole Luxury Brands, London (United Kingdom).
