There's nothing quite like a distinctive piece of art that radiates the personality of its owner and commissioning an individual design or collection of ceramic art by Anita Harris can be a rewarding and exciting process. We would be delighted to discuss collaborative projects and individual commissions to bring an idea to life or personalise a gift for a loved one or, of course, bring a distinctive idea to life.
Anita Harris offers highly competitive trade options and pricing for businesses and organisations that wish to purchase large quantities of individually designed products for specific occasions. We are also able to offer large volumes of all our specific products or collections for use as corporate gifts or to commemorate specific occasions and can offer excellent options for new and returning trade customers.
Step 2: The pieces are removed from the moulds, and sponged and fettled to achieve a smooth finish. Step 4: The "green" pieces are placed in the kiln for a biscuit firing of over 1100 degrees centigrade. We use reactive glazes which interact violently against each other in the glost firing, producing an amazing finish.
