Tide Light designed by Matthew Raw is part of The New Craftsmen’s ‘Claylarks’ collection. The feature light is made from ceramic ‘sherds’ in a tonal palette of glazes and textured surfaces. Matthew took inspiration from the actual forms of the sherds he found while mudlarking and the Museum of London archive, where pottery sherds were laid out on fantastic blue tables and as a result their shapes became highly prominent. Matthew loved the mystery of their origins and purpose, as well as the way they had been worked by the river into graphic shapes. The glazes and textures in the Tide Light both reflect the shards Matthew found and his own rich glaze recipes, which could become found relics of the future. Aside from their individual stories, Matthew loved then arranging the pieces together to create various formations. Their form, how they overlapped, the space in between and the relationship between each colour and finish. The idea of different sherds coming together to create a composition and a story led to the Tide Light. The highly sculptural yet functional wall light casts an ambient glow from behind and can be commissioned in a range of bespoke glaze combinations.
