Fifty years on and Toff Milway is still enthusiastic about making pots for everyday use and is constantly inspired to make vessels to serve food on the table

About

‘Fifty years on and I am still enthusiastic about making pots for everyday use and am constantly inspired to make pots to put food on the table. The longer I make pots the more I see the possibilities in the clay I use and get even more excited when I discover new textures and colours from the same few basic materials that I work with'

Saltglaze stoneware is a beautiful medium for Toff Milway's type of work, yielding so much subtlety from the clay with all kinds of variation in surface texture, which truly enhances the food that goes on it.

 Working as a country potter is all Toff has ever wanted to be and he can hardly believe he has achieved his dream of making and supplying customers whilst living in the wonderful surroundings of the Cotswolds.

As a Fellow of the Craft Potters Association of Great Britain and a Life Member of the Gloucestershire Guild of Craftsmen Toff has all the status he could wish for and in his next fifty years strives to produce excellent well crafted pots that will add delight to someone else’s life!
