Salt Pig — Rocky Hillside

A handmade salt pig thrown for keeping salt within easy reach of the cooker, in the Rocky Hillside glaze. The pieces below are the exact pieces currently available, so you can choose the one that feels right for you.

The shape

Each Salt Pig is thrown on the wheel with a wide opening sized for a pinch of salt or a small spoon, then turned and finished by hand the next day, kept within easy reach of the cooker.

The glaze

Blue over a soft sand, drawn from walking the gritstone edges above Macclesfield. On a clear day the rock reads grey-blue against dry bracken, and that is the pairing here, a warmer blue than Cornflower, set on a soft, sandy base.

Approx. 13cm wide, 13cm tall · Wide opening, easy to pinch salt straight from the pot

Every piece is thrown and finished by hand, so small differences in shape, glaze movement, colour and texture are part of its unique character.
