The Collaboration
Yorkshire Sea Salt Co. approached local Yorkshire ceramicist Lorna Gilbert to create a bespoke piece that was functional as a salt cellar but represented the brand as well as the wilds of the North Sea and the Yorkshire Coast.
The pyramid shape represents the crystallised shape of sea salt, with the dark textured interior mimicking the bedrock and the glazed outer reflects the sands edge meeting the waves.
Each piece is slightly different being handmade, hand decorated, and hand glazed.
Lorna’s work explores the relationship between matte and gloss glazes as well as their interaction when mixed during firing. This creates tension and fusion, hinting at unseen boundaries as well as reflections and shadows.
Lorna creates handmade white stoneware ceramics that are both functional and beautiful.
Lorna’s fine art and textile background created a fascination with texture, inspired by wilderness, the ocean and mountains.
