Bridgewater/Rice: High Price

Emma continues to do very well for herself these days, business continues to grow, with new designs appearing all the time.

I worked for her and her husband (dear Matthew Rice) as a designer and illustrator in 1999, at their rectory in North Norfolk, surrounded by their family, many animals and a small handful of other staff, until the design and general admin side of things were all moved to Stoke-on-Trent, where the pottery/factory is based.

I was called upon to produce ideas, themes, designs and drawings for a great variety of pieces, for both Matthew and Emma, from Spongeware mugs, jugs, bowls and plates, to T-cloths, diaries, calendars, cake tins and more. Some limited editions. Some still in use today.

...very different maddy-ceramics coming soon...
