How to Make Simple, Small Pottery Jars - Narrated Version
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
These small jars are some of my favourite pots once fired and this video shows how I throw, trim, glaze and fire them. They're fiddly vessels to finish but I really love how they look and feel once fired.
Thanks for watching and if you're got any further questions please leave it down in the comments and I'll do my best to reply.

The tinkling noise is actually the sound of him collecting all the experience from the kiln

It's a pleasant one, as is the lovely warm air that heats the studio when the door is opened in the winter.

@@floriangadsby but you surely must resent opening the kiln in the midst of a scorching hot summer :)

Good contrast to the dissonant roar of the kiln itself.
That was utterly beautiful to watch. You have always been so generous with your information, advice and the sharing of your techniques. There is a whole generation of potters inspired by you and your philosophy. Thank you
I want to get to this level in my sewing and crafting; not the scale of production, necessarily, but the act of making something that someone else would treasure and consider a precious possession.
The musical sound when you open the kiln is so magical.
I love how accurate you work. Every pot looks so perfect. No mess of clay anywhere. You speak with such a calming voice, I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you

Did you watch ASMR videos? That could be the connection
My first impression to this video was “I remember my art teacher telling me that learning a pottery wheel is like learning an instrument” and I agreed with him based solely on his decades of experience in art. When I saw you forming the pots I was careful to tell myself “it may look easy and flashy but he’s definitely making this look easy.” And I knew for certain you make it look easy and were quickly approaching a perfected product when I saw that enormous oven you fired the jars in. Anyone who has an oven that big doesn’t just fuck around with clay on the weekends, it takes years of dedication to make this a career and it should be respected deeply.
There is something relaxing about playing with the earth. Be it pottery or be it gardening, touching clay or mud is just Soo relaxing. Gonna start spending time doing one
My pottery teacher showed your videos in class, I was never too interested in physical art forms but I have a huge amount of respect for people that have the time and dedication to turn mud into something practical
This channel is gonna blow up real soon

I kiln feel it too
Don't know, why this is in my recommendation section, but I like it :-)
Just perfect for spices, I think... very beatiful little pots.... thanks for showing
Thankyou so much! My interest on pottery suddenly increased watching this video.
You say that it's a simple shape, with your talent you make it look majestic 😊 Thanks for sharing 🥰
The amount of confidence you have in your craft to just detail out not only every step of your process but the thinking behind each is so impressive. Just happened upon this but I've been following your work on insta for a long time, really excited to see you on youtube.
The tinkling of the glaze has an indescribable appeal. It's like it's greeting you with a subtle magic when you open up the kiln to see all the finished pieces. I'd love to pick up pottery as a hobby. I love experimentation and trial and error problem solving. It would be meditative and, perhaps just as important, produce useful items. I should start learning about it. Think I'll check out your store while I'm at it too
Oh my, ....... apothecary jars. The precision, Wow. Hand thrown, ..the precision! The glaze, Oh... I live so far away from these precious jars. Website, a must visit. Subscribed! :)
I like your voice,so clear and calm.I can understand everything.NIce demonstration.Thank you so much.

Thank you very much! That really means so much.
I would use them as apothecary jars. They are absolutely wonderful.
These pots are absolutely lovely....perfect size for expensive Japanese green teas...sencha, tencha and gyokuros that are purchased in 50-100g sizes.
What a skilled artisan. Really fascinating video.
These are stunning. I see a collection of these on a shelf full of herbs. Gorgeous.
This is the type of content i would watch all day... This is the perfect example of "Satisfaction" 🏺 NEVER EVER QUIT:)
I stumbled upon your video today and watched in admiration of your jar construction. My mother was a potter and I so enjoyed watching you throw.
I just started and with every video you make, it inspires me. It's a long road, I know, but your lessons make it worth attempting. Throw on ~
I love all your videos, your voice and tone are somehow therapeutic. I am doing pottery on my own without guidance and I find them very helpful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Very cute monolithic jars.
following some of your techniques has made me a better potter thank you
Well that was just a crazy fun watch of something I'll probably never own or hold in my life.
I love these “simple” pieces, I’m definitely going to try a few of these!
lovely jars..and very helpful info and tips.
These absolutely represent your style - love green! Appreciate your videos too - learn from each one
Those jars would look so beautiful in one’s kitchen or bathroom.
Love it! They look like little jars you'd see in an apothecary or something. Perfect for spices, herbs, or teas. They're very aesthetically pleasing.
As a musician (and a potter), I think it would be lovely if you made a recording of the crackling sound and either gave it to a composer friend or used it as intro music. 😊🎼
Your videos are like a pottery master class... Thank you for reaching the art of basic pottery to the whole world.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. The crackling of the glass towards the end was very beautiful and relaxing. Your designs are equally as gorgeous!
I imagine these would be lovely for small batch loose leaf tea. They're absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you for showing and explaining the process
Ancient pots...feels a bit Egyptian...i love them! Thank you for this beautiful video! Inspired again☺️🙏🏻☀️
Just stumbled onto this video and I'm blown away. Amazing content
one of the best recommandations from youtube. to bad those are few and far in between. i would love to see more channels like yours. great job man!

Thank you, I can't say how kind that is. So appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Such a gorgeous piece. Your explanations make pottery so easy to understand!
Another splendid video! Thanks. Watching these is very therapeutic. You should bill my health insurance.
Your voice is so soothing. Your hands are lovely. They can throw beautiful pieces in a wheel or play me a lullaby on the piano.
Praise the algorithm. Well done brother
Dream of having a whole shelf of your work one day!
Damn! This was magic to watch. I'm just getting into ceramics and you have inspired me.
Thank you for your wonderful video.
I'm struck by how much all of your work looks so modern and precise but still unmistakably hand-made. Really amazing. It's a shame they're all sold out, though I suppose thats a good problem for you to have
Best video I have ever seen. Great camera shots up close, and explainations! Very helpful.
No that noise is from him eating Nerds...great video. Amazed at that process.
Man, this video is really soothing to the creative soul
Your skills are exemplary and watching the process is fascinating. Thank you for this!
The ending is mind-blowing ❤️
The explanation is so easy and crisp...love your work tooo....makes me want to learn pottery myself ❤️
They're absolutly beautiful
Absolutely wonderful. Peaceful and inspiring at the same time, thank you.

Florian, those would make a beautiful custom spice jar collection. You could carefully stamp the names of spices on the side in a nice custom script and they would sell for top prices.
I want to learn this art of pottery and teach it to all the children specially from villages, u have taken the pottery to an another level.... The things u r making needs to be delivered to every part of the world, because we need pottery products not plastic products, and ur work of excellence had made these products not just usable and acceptable but also exciting to use.... Thank you so much
you cant even imagine how much you help my anxiety. Thanks.
just ran across this channel in my recommended, and I must say, I love your work!
That crackling sound! Wakes up small Golum inside me. We Wants It!!!
This video is so mesmerising and anxiety-reliefing! Guess I'm not the first, but you're like Bob Ross of pottery!
I so love the simplicity of these lidded jars and have been trying to analyze them to figure out how I could translate the lessons here into making a butter crock (or French butter dish). I’ve found a few tutorials on making butter crocks but none that go into the detail you tend to include in your videos, nor do they address the complexity of glazing a two-part pot that has a top that also must serve as a the base. I don’t know whether you’d ever consider it but I’d love to see a tutorial on such a pot if that shape was of any interest to you!
Cool jars, thanks for sharing.

Amazing work. The end result is a beauty for sure
you make it look easy, thanks for sharing you majestic work. love your vids keep it up
Gorgeous, and amazing to watch along with informative.
Artistry. Amazing hand skills.
I love these!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️ Perfect for me who's trying to get rid of disposable containers
Incredible ❤ you’re really great at this
This video really makes me miss making pottery. Your production value is excellent, and thank you for sharing. I would enjoy hearing more about the wadding, if you're willing to share. What are the rules for using it? Does it ever stick to the clay after firing? Does it stick to glaze?
Really enjoyed this process. I would also enjoy something similar set to music with no explainer. Just a thought for future content.
appreciate the overhead angle, these are quaint pieces
They're stunning!
12:08 this little _bloop_ is everything 👌
You've inspired me to make some spice jars!
I love this channel!
Enjoy all your video/guidance, but I found this one particularily helpful. Thanks so much and Congrats! Parabens! at reaching 50 000.
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
Another great job you don’t need a pointer you have it Mastered 👍
I literally went to the shop a minute after it opened just to get one of these magnificent pieces--baring in mind I literally live paycheck to paycheck and the end of the month is usually really harsh--but something drew me to their form... simple yet elegant sounds too cliche... ethereal made tangible perhaps.... they were all sold out within minutes I didn't even get enough time to compare and appreciate the subtle varieties on offer. I don't think I've ever been so disappointed in my entire life lol and I've been through the kinds of stuff books are written about--that's saying something! Nonetheless, congrats! I'm so glad your hard work has paid off for you and I wish you every success, you def deserve it!

Ah, thank you.. it sold out unbelievably fast. I'm still quite shocked to be honest. I'll have many more updates in the future. I send to do a few every year. I'm sorry!
Awesome video and pottery workmanship. Loved it 👌
Looks lovely! Thanks for sharing
Amazing results, you work very hard.
Your work and narration reminds me of the Wood working guy "FourEyes". I'm not complaining tho.
