Pottering about


















Went into the St Quentin la Poterie Tuesday market because rumour had it that cheap courgette flowers, one of my favourite foods, could be found there. However, there were none to be found so we went on a wander to find some nice things to look at. St Quentin has been famous for its pottery since the Roman occupation, so it's full of beautiful shops selling porcelain and clay creations. We came across this gorgeous boutique, a shared space between three artists: a painter, a porcelain potter and a sculptor, named 'Les Souris Blanches', The White Mice. Just thought I'd share some of this exquisite bone china lighting. We got a salt bowl and a candle holder.
