Florian Gadsby is a ceramicist working with stoneware and porcelain in North London — here you'll find videos that show process, how pottery is thrown and finished and finally glazed and kiln fired. The videos here show the processes behind his work, such as the throwing and trimming of tableware and more sculptural pieces. For more regular posts, including daily photographs and videos, make sure to follow over on my Instagram: (www.instagram.com/floriangadsby). I restock my online shop around 3/4 times a year, with about 300-400 pieces a time, if you'd like to receive a newsletter about when these go live you can sign up to my newsletter on my website, (https://www.floriangadsby.com/newsletter). I also leave the shop page online, even though it appears as sold out, it usually sells out in a few minutes time, just to give you an idea of what's available and the price range, (https://www.floriangadsby.com/shop). If there's anything else you'd like to know, please do get in touch!

Video Description
Here's this week's ASMR version of my teapot making video. If you'd prefer to watch the version with an informative narration, you can find it here: (https://youtu.be/_nNexrGxpG8). Otherwise, for those who enjoy the sounds from the studio, this ones for you. Timecodes: 0:00 - Introduction 0:32 - Throwing teapot body 3:30 - Throwing lid 5:01 - Throwing spout 7:45 - Trimming and assembling teapot 20:19 - Pulling and attaching the handle 25:17 - Packing the electric kiln for a bisque firing 27:26 - Unpacking the electric kiln 28:02 - Waxing the teapot 29:37 - Glazing the teapot 33:19 - Rolling out the waddings to prop up the lid 34:03 - Packing the gas kiln 34:49 - Firing the gas kiln 37:32 - Unpacking the gas kiln 38:27 - Grinding the lid smooth 39:18 - Sanding the base 39:42 - Finished teapots My wadding recipe is: 50% china clay/kaolin, 50% coarse alumina hydrate. Mix together slowly and then combine with water very slowly, as it seems to turn to a liquid very easily, so add less than you think. The gas kiln is a Rohde KG-340, and my potter's wheel is a Rohde HMT 500.
