“I use Ming Porcelain, a blend of super white clays based on traditional Chinese recipes. Porcelain is known for its glass-like translucency, strength and beautiful white finish no other clay can match. Because of its purity and speciality, porcelain is an expensive medium to work in, it is currently one of the most expensive clays to source in Ireland. Porcelain also requires more delicate making techniques and longer drying times to avoid, or at

least minimise, cracks and warps in the final product. As a clay, it can create vibrant colour results in glazes and this is what I seek to do with this range of tableware.” Lydia Smith
