Papworth reinterprets the iconic form here, with an understated jar exhibiting a purity of form exemplary of the artist’s wider practice. With a luminosity and soft shimmer emanating from its off-white ‘frost’ glaze, this moon jar is understated beauty at its finest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the Artist \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWill Papworth (b. 1996, Somerset, England) is a ceramicist and photographer, currently working in London. Papworth received his First-Class BA in Fine Art at Kingston School of Art in 2019. His final year studies saw him sit for the first time at a potter’s wheel, and he has been captivated by clay ever since. Following graduation, Papworth has built himself a garden studio in East Sussex, where he taught himself how to throw and fire ceramics. Since the beggining of 2024 he has become a member of Standpoint Studios based in Central London. Here he works alongside other artists and spends time practicing, reasearching and learning more about his craft. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eMost of the artist’s work is hand-thrown, creating stoneware, earthenware and porcelain ceramics encompassing both functional tableware and works of art. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/maudandmabel.com\/collections\/will-papworth\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eRead more about Will's practice and view his full collection.. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Will Papworth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56704197984629,"sku":"WP261-12","price":720.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0233\/5583\/files\/7R1A6671.jpg?v=1781696084","url":"https:\/\/maudandmabel.com\/products\/will-papworth-extra-large-moon-jar-in-white-1","provider":"Maud and Mabel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
