About
Experienced hands
We have over 30 years experience of working with adults, young people and children, sharing our passion for pottery with tens of thousands. Through skillful facilitation and a lot of laughter, we aim to enhance the lives of those we have the privilege to work with.
Visit Our Idyllic Studio
We established Eastnor Pottery in 1994. Originally, we needed workshop space and were offered a charming, redundant cottage on the Eastnor Castle Estate. As our reputation and practice grew, we expanded next door, purchased more equipment and began to share our magical space with others.
Flying Potter – We can come to you
Unable to visit us on the Eastnor Castle Estate? No problem. All the benefits, materials and equipment can be transported to a venue of your choice. We travel all over the place working in schools and community settings. The Flying Potter mobile studio also delivers to libraries, museums, art galleries, conference centres and festivals.
At the end of the session your clay creations can be transported back to our studio to be fired and returned a few weeks later. The fired outcome serves as a permanent reminder of a brilliant day.
Introducing the artists
So here we are! Sarah Monk and Jon Williams founders and co directors of Eastnor Pottery. We met as young art students studying ceramics in Bath. Our eyes met over the potter’s wheel and the rest as they say….. As well as sharing our passion and enthusiasm for pottery with others we are makers in our own right, exhibiting and selling our unique designs. Check out our individual brands.

A great couple of hours with Jon and Sarah learning coil pottery. At the end of the experience there were pots, tea lights holders, cats and even a hare to show for everyone’s efforts. Highly recommended.

Jon came to our school at Lapworth- absolutely superb. He inspired and engaged the children from the off, the workshop was pitched so well for them (Year 6 in the morning, Year 2 in the afternoon) and we will absolutely welcome him back whenever we can- thank you, Jon!

We went for the 1.5 hour session in the summer and really enjoyed it so booked on a weekend course in November. Jon and Sarah are just great hosts and teachers of the wheel! Whatever you produce it’s such a fun time and while you’re working it’s impossible to think of anything else so by default, relaxing. I’d highly recommend it.
I can’t wait to receive my pots in a few weeks 🙂Kristy
