Jim makes functional pieces, paying particular attention not just to line, shape and colour but also the details of how they might be handled and used.
All his work is thrown, turned and glazed by hand and he tends to make one off items or small batches, so everything is quite unique. Jim is especially inspired by studio pottery of the 60s and 70s, Scandinavian makers like Soholm and Lovemose and classic British household ware like Hornsea and Denby. All J G Pottery work is made from his studio based in Bristol.
