Solar2 Limited Commission

In March I got contacted by Solar2 Limited. They had completed a project outside of York and to commemorate this they wanted a local artist to create a bespoke piece for them. They wanted to have bespoke DAVOS tumblers with their project stamp on.

I was delighted to be selected. It was a one month turn around time, which, for me as a one woman part-time business, is fast, considering in March/early April temperatures in my studio were still quite low, so drying took up an entire week. The local stamp shop I initially wanted to work with wasn’t available due to unforeseen circumstances, so I had to work with a stamp business I had never used before on a tight time line. They delivered outstandingly.

The bisque kiln was full to the absolute brim and two glaze kilns were completely full. The shipment and delivery went smoothly and within the agreed 30 days the company had their bespoke commission at their door.

You can watch the whole process below, from the day the ordered raw materials arrived until the shipment got picked up.
