| Val Burns


Val handbuilds large pots for the home environment - such as platters, vases and planters - many of which feature laminated clay in the design. Made to be strong yet light in weight, the pots are decorated with slips (often copper, iron or manganese) and finished with a matt crystalline glaze. The decoration of this work is much influenced by echoes of the natural environment and the subtle effects of camouflage.
Throwing on the wheel in Culross Pottery’s workshop space, Val also makes a range of stoneware vessels, preferring shapes with clean lines, simply glazed in cool modern colours. These include a variety of mugs and jugs, with dishes, bowls and vases.
Val’s latest work is available at Culross Pottery & Gallery in Fife, and she regularly exhibits at other galleries in Fife and around the Edinburgh area.
