A native of Cork, Ray Power set up Castle Arch Pottery in the Autumn of 1993 in Kilkenny's famous Castle Yard, which site under the gaze of Kilkenny Castle. Each piece is made in small production batches on the potter's wheel, allowing great attention to be paid to decorative details such as handles, sprigs and to the fluent slip-trailed decoration with embossed surfaces. The penultimate stage sees each piece bisque fired to 1000cc before the final glazing and firing again to 1200cc. This guarantees the pottery will be both microwave and dishwasher safe. This traditional approach, typical of Irish country potteries, ensures that Castle Arch Pottery maintains its unique character. The glazes used are both luscious and eye catching which have been developed over the past 15 years. Taking inspiration from Celtic patterns such as the Newgrange spirals and traditional motifs and prints handed down through centuries of pattern making. The mission of Castle Arch Pottery is to make bold honest pieces that will stand out and enhance any domestic setting be it formal or decorative.
