Francesca Dourado

07/2026

Francesca is a Bristol-based ceramicist who predominantly works with stoneware clay on the potter’s wheel, creating beautiful, functional pieces for everyday use.

Inspired by the colours and textures of the natural landscape, her work draws on earthy tones alongside rich, deep blues reminiscent of the sea and the night sky. She uses glaze to create variation, with each firing producing subtle differences in colour, depth, and texture, ensuring each piece is truly one of a kind.
