Never had I any idea there is so much work involved in making something like this. It is clear to me now the true value of a piece of fine pottery. My hat is off to you, sir.
I will never complain about the price of good quality pottery again. This video has definitely put me in my place. Potters deserve much recognition and respect. Their craft is very difficult to master.
I’m probably one of the small few of your audience who doesn’t do pottery, however your voice is so calming and it helps me to study. Your videos are always very interesting for someone who haven’t used a pottery wheel one in their life.
Me too, I know nothing about pottery, but this is so so beautiful and I can keep watching these for hours. Such precision, meticulousness and patience to create something so lovely from a lump of clay is truly profound. Hats off. 🙏
I'm pretty sure a lot of us aren't potters. I do other crafts, but I love to watch a fine artisan at work, no matter their craft. Florian's videos are beautiful in their own right as well.
I will never complain about the price of good quality pottery again. This video has definitely put me in my place. Potters deserve much recognition and respect. Their craft is very difficult to master. Hats off to you sir. Beautiful work. ❤
I really appreciate how much you reiterate each important step of your process. If you ever worry you’re too repetitive, just know I prefer it that way! Thank you for these beautiful and informative videos.
It's pretty stunning how many concepts carry over between machining and pottery: lapping, using a turning wheel to create concentricity, and how similar trimming is to turning on a lathe. The tolerances are different obviously, and one is significantly more manual than the other, but truthfully crafting is crafting, regardless of media. Thank you for the video and for taking us inside your studio, it's a joy to watch.
I've been dreaming of making a teapot for a while now, it's incredible to see the whole process and all the detailed work involved. Thanks for making this - I'm guessing filming and editing a 40 minute video takes almost as much effort as making the teapot!
You have the absolute best 'tutorial' videos on how to do something. You're clean and concise and easy to listen to. I think this is the type of style that is the best for explaining about a process. Not only are you artistic, professional and clean, but you're easy to follow. Bravo to you for sharing your process and eliminating all of the background nonsense. You're really good!
Florian, I've made it this far. These 40min flew by in a blink of an eye. I am amazed of your work itself and your effort to show the whole process. Very well edited and narrated. Thank you a lot!
There are no words to describe your work, the amount of atttenttion to details, the perfect process you mastered, you are so good that you make everything seem easy ( and we all know thats not the case at all xD), greetings from Brazil, keep up the wonderful work
Amazing craftsmanship. This showed up on my feed randomly and watched all off it. It's always awesome to see how much time, energy and passion people put into their work.
The meticulous attention to detail and flow of process is truly inspiring Florian. Incredible content to continue to learn from. My fiancé and I started taking classes in January 2020, and your videos are an education in themselves. Thank you for making such great content and pots!
Your work is stunningly gorgeous and your heart is not afraid of giving your experience to strangers. That's something money can never buy and you have my utmost gratitude and respect.
As a tea enthusiast I am glad to see all the details that must be taken care of when making a teapot. A good teapot must feel natural, an extension of one’s hand and allow for clean pouring and easy maintenance. It’s that combination of little fits, chamfers, angles and bores that make or break a pot.
it’s beautiful to watch how meticulous you are with your work! incredible being able to examine your handiwork from beginning to end. i usually enjoy videos like these without any voiceovers but this time is an exception. this time hearing the artist’s voice explain what they are doing in a way that was calming, informative, and easily understood really enhanced the entire experience. i find myself desperately wanting a tea pot of my own!
This was randomly recommended to me and I really definitely didn't think I'd watch 40 minutes about how teapots are made. But I did and loved every minute of it. It is a beautiful, relaxing, fascinating and informative video. Very well done and thank you for gifting us with this quality content ! 🙏🍀
Seeing the process of your ceramics increases their desirability sevenfold. Seeing you gradually hollow out just the right concave for the glaze to pool has solidified for me why I'll be purchasing one.
your videos are always a treat and i love learning about how you make everything through your content. you always make something so pretty and perfectly replicate it every time, and it always starts of as something so blank and bare. thank you for your content :)
I have my first wheel-throwing class in 2 days. I can't wait to feel the clay with my hands and apply what I learned from you in my class. Thank you for creating these videos; it's beautiful to watch.
@@floriangadsby I copied your design for making teapots I am not going to sell it out of respect I'm going to keep it but I made a few of them and I'm going to keep all of them or give them to my family perhaps. The design lends itself very well for production work. Every time I walk by it and look I have to stop and look at it for a while. I'm having trouble finding a high iron content clay that doesn't turn almost black when firing if you have any suggestions I am open LOL. I have 10 or 12 bags of red art clay I just don't have any good recipe for cone 6 or above
I'm lying on my sofa, sick, and totally enjoying it to fully immerse myself in your videos. there's a delicacy to your videos, as well as your pots. superb!
it’s absolutely crazy to see just how much goes into making these sorts of things. really gives you not only a new perspective of where small business items come from, but a massive boost in appreciation to the love and attention that goes into each piece. i knew it was hard work before but man…..just incredible. you’re a gem for sharing this with all of us, i can’t tell you how much i loved watching you work!
watched it the whole way thru and didnt even realize 40 mins went by, this inspires me so much as someone who wants to work in ceramics more :D thank you for the lovely content and beautiful work
That was one of the best, most informative ceramics videos I've come across. Extremely well done. The shoot and narration were really excellent. Thanks for sharing it!
Your teapots are gorgeous! The fact that you spent so many hours on each of them is incredible. It's a very long drawn out process, which you explained really clearly. You make really beautiful pottery. I only discovered your channel today because I was looking for videos concerning air dry clay projects, so the algorithm decided your video was the same, which it's not, but having said that, I am very glad your channel was suggested to me. I have subscribed today and intend to learn more of what you do. I love clay of all kinds and the different ways they can be used. Your videos look really interesting.
The number of steps is daunting yet also rather soothing, taking each so methodically and precisely in turn. I am a new potter and learning so much from watching you. Thank you for so generously sharing your process and expertise. 🙏🏼
I've just stumbled on this channel and it's a hidden gem. As a soapmaker myself, I can begin to understand practicing a craft that isn't well known and I'm beyond happy to see how well you've done and how you're managing to introduce so many to this ageless craft. Hopefully I can catch the next sale and get one of these beautiful teapots!
That's decided me. No teapot making for me. Your videos are brilliant. No music just a brilliantly articulate, detailed description of what is involved. Thanks so much for taking so much care.
From beginning to the end, yes I did watch your video. So much careful detail technique. Thank you for showing me how passionate, how methodical you are to creating the most beautiful teapot! Wonderful, amazing!
Wow. Thank you for making this video. I’ve enjoyed it immensely. I’ve started throwing and I’m already utterly addicted. Beautiful beautiful teapots. Absolutely stunning.
i started this video thinking i was just going to skip around a bit, but i ended up watching the whole thing your narration is very seamless, and this whole video was very informative and interesting to watch!
The first video I see from your channel. Delighted with these 40 minutes learning something I didn't really know, well explained, done, recorded, and narrated. Thanks for your effort and your crafts!
This is the inspiration I needed to take the leap into learning ceramics. I really appreciate the time you've put into making these videos which is a huge help for many of us entering this intricate and rewarding craft. Thank you.
I made it all the way through -- which is nothing compared to the work you and other potters do. I really had no idea how much skill and effort and thought and care these beautiful items took. thank you!
This takes me back to my ceramics classes. And your voice is so soothing and instruction really spot on, covering why things might happen and why it's done a certain way. :) A master craftsman
These videos are incredibly detailed and well-produced. I've just started to learn how to throw and my mind is blown by how involved the process is, and how long you spend on each piece. But the finished work is beautiful! Thank you for sharing your process!
This video was so beautiful. I used to take pottery classes when I was younger in a local studio shed with incredible artists working just in the next room over. I recognized so many of these steps and techniques but your mastery and craftsmanship made it so mesmerizing to watch, just like when I was a kid peeking into the artists’ open studio hours. It’s making me want to take classes again! Thank you for such a wonderful documentation of your process.
This is the first video I saw from your channel. I intended to watch more of it. You have a great skill to make a beautiful masterpiece, no doubt. I also like how you are organized. Your wording and delivering the video is also captivating. In a way, the video is relaxing and helping me to enjoy my break in between my tedious job. Thank you for making a great video..
i made a bird figure meanwhile watching this! Your calm approach in your videos really is perfect. I listened, and made my 1st clay model (Wich, it was like a sparrow with a long beak.) Keep on doing these man!
Such a beautiful process, that not only creates a lovely piece, but also gives a story and an identity to each one of them, as an architecture student, I would love if my study plan included workshops of hand crafts such as pottery, woodwork etc, i believe that it creates a relationship and a deeper understanding of materials and how to develop their own expression and their own voice, not just simply choosing from a catalog and using them. Thanks for sharing your work!
It's a grace to watch a master. Watched the whole video as if time was nothing. Thank you for your videos. I'm in the process of watching and re-watching all of them.
Loved it all the way through! I used to know a potter who I marvelled at how even he could keep the top and bottom of a glaze firing! Then I saw him reach and bend the last cone on the bottom with an iron rod! Sneaky, cheeky potter! We didn’t have the beauty of a kiln you have! What a beautiful video! Thanks!
I made it "this far" And I am very glad I did. I enjoy your voice, the quality of your work, the educational value, and all the other pleasant aspects of this video. Thank you.
This is the first video of yours I watched and I stared at it with awe. My mouth slightly opened and I was quite overwhelmed by a calm feeling which is usually what I feel when I look at a craftsman work wheter it is forge or ceramic but it was the first time I witnessed the making of a piece from start to finish including glazing and firing. I found it beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for this.
So much intentionality in the process. I really enjoyed how you showed the function of the teapot. The end result is such a high combination of skills.
When I was a kid I thought that spinning orange clay like this looked delicious. I guess I still do, lol. Excellent video. Watching the work that goes into something as small as this makes me want to use hand-made objects like this every day :)
Currently in a wheel throwing class, I love seeing the culmination of the basics and fundamentals that we've been practicing in class being demonstrated here as well! a wonderfully condensed video of the whole process
I assumed it was an ASMR video but was surprised it had commentary and explanation. The showcase of year long skill and knowledge kept me watching the whole video. Thank you for this video! Greetings from Germany
I would love to do this I hope to start it soon. I would love to add my creativity to some of your pots. I love how simple they are but so much work and patience and luv go into them👌 Really helped my anxiety watching this. Thank you 🙏
Easily watched the whole video. I am starting again after 5 years of not throwing, so this was like a good college lecture that was full of information that you wanted to listen to. Great job my friend. Hello from San Diego, ✌🏼🦁
Though I have never made a single pot, something about these videos is just so... beautiful, not just the pieces themselves, but everything else as well
Beautiful work! True artisanship. The beauty shots at the very end do show them off, but seeing them in context on the boards somehow I find even more beautiful. You did give me a minor heart attack at 26:40, casually removing that entire shelf of pots :-O
The last 6 minutes of the video was an ugly realization of how much money I need to spend to have such a fine product! That Gas kiln is probably more expensive than a vehicle! I don't do pottery, but love watching your videos before I go to bed. A true craftsmanship with smooth delivery!
You don't have to start with a gas kiln! You can start making pottery with much cheaper, electric kilns, and use small amounts of commercial glazes that are brushed on, so you don't have to mix up big batches like I do. Thanks so much for watching!
That was absolutely amazing! The care and consideration, detail work and patience. You have a real talent. Thank you for taking the time to make the video amidst juggling making the pots and creating this content. Astounding!
Even though I can’t afford your tea pots... you’re not charging enough! So lovely, so very lovely... and yes I’ve watched it all the way through. (Didn’t get to hear the music of the pots when you opened the kiln 😔)
Thank you very much... and sadly no, not this time, I opened the kiln after a whole weekend this time, so it had another full 24 hours to cool down all the way to ambient room temperature, when that happens there's no pinging noises. The tinkling sound only really occurs when I open the kiln at 150ºc or so.
Your instructions and commentary is so clear and concise and your creations so beautiful. As both a potter and elementary school teacher I appreciate both your talents! I will become a regular viewer. Much thanks!
I’m editing a novel. Somehow watching this video made me so excited about being even more precise with my work. Such motivation. You’ve gained a new subscriber 👌🏾
Your teapots certainly give me a new appreciation of the artistry ! Start each day with a pottery video, yours are always on the list! Thank You again for sharing your skills with us! My wheel should arrive soon and I will begin to begin.
FASCINATING!!!! The whole process and your precision is really amazing. I have dabbled with pottery and found the process therapeutic and enjoyable. You have shown me how professional potters can achieve repeatable results. Thank you for the GREAT video!!!🤗
Yep watched to the end, wrote down all the materials and tools etc I need to purchase and saved the video fir when I’m proficient enough to begin making my first teapot. Thank you my teacher!
I've taken multiple pottery classes as part of my college degree and just a few of your videos taught me more than those classes ever did! This makes me want to give pottery another shot!
Thank you for the great explanation. When I learned to make teapots we were told to measure the tip of the spout with the top of the teapot in order to insure proper pouring. But yours are perfect, so it seems like you have that aspect down pat. Your teapots are beautiful.
I watched every second of it. Never paid much attention to pottery or glazes, but these are absolutely beautiful. I love your obsession over the details and I'm hoping to own one of your pieces one day!

It really is one of the most fulfilling feelings seeing a piece that you have worked on for hours come out of the kiln and it is butiful

Right! I was introduced to pottery making through a show on bbc and seeing the full process from someone who has it as their job.. it's wonderful

The last 6 minutes of the video was an ugly realization of how much money I need to spend to have such a fine product! That Gas kiln is probably more expensive than a vehicle! I don't do pottery, but love watching your videos before I go to bed. A true craftsmanship with smooth delivery!
You don't have to start with a gas kiln! You can start making pottery with much cheaper, electric kilns, and use small amounts of commercial glazes that are brushed on, so you don't have to mix up big batches like I do. Thanks so much for watching!
…absolutely love and look forward to your videos 🥰🥰🥰
So pleased to hear so - thanks for taking the time to watch! Especially with this weeks upload...
P.S. I made to the very end!
That was absolutely amazing! The care and consideration, detail work and patience. You have a real talent. Thank you for taking the time to make the video amidst juggling making the pots and creating this content. Astounding!
Even though I can’t afford your tea pots... you’re not charging enough! So lovely, so very lovely... and yes I’ve watched it all the way through. (Didn’t get to hear the music of the pots when you opened the kiln 😔)
Thank you very much... and sadly no, not this time, I opened the kiln after a whole weekend this time, so it had another full 24 hours to cool down all the way to ambient room temperature, when that happens there's no pinging noises. The tinkling sound only really occurs when I open the kiln at 150ºc or so.
I did not expect to simply be drawn for the very start to the very end. this is so calming and nice to watch. thanks!
I don't know why but every time he picks up that wooden planche with that much clay work my anxiety goes through the ROOF
this is the best thing i have ever come across on the internet. really appreciate the commentary too
How beautiful, the process, craftmanship to perfection, and the quality of the visual and contents? Unbelievable, legendary.❤
It is odd... this video was realesed on my 59 year of life...and I am a tea lover... so thank you... was very nice to see!!!
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed your process and results. Watching the entire video to the end and letting you know I’d do it again. Beautifully done.
I had no idea how much things I had been doing wrong or incomplete. Thanks for the video, It was really worth it to see til the end.
beautiful video, i couldnt NOT watch it all the way through. The magic that is the before and after, from beginning to end. Stunning work.
Your instructions and commentary is so clear and concise and your creations so beautiful. As both a potter and elementary school teacher I appreciate both your talents! I will become a regular viewer. Much thanks!
Your entire channel is just pure gold... You explain so well, this is easily the best pottery channel in youtube, congratulations.
I’m editing a novel. Somehow watching this video made me so excited about being even more precise with my work. Such motivation. You’ve gained a new subscriber 👌🏾
Someone who isn’t just a craftsman but passionate about his craft is a joy to watch and lean from. Thanks for posting this 👍👍👍
Your teapots certainly give me a new appreciation of the artistry ! Start each day with a pottery video, yours are always on the list! Thank You again for sharing your skills with us! My wheel should arrive soon and I will begin to begin.
FASCINATING!!!! The whole process and your precision is really amazing. I have dabbled with pottery and found the process therapeutic and enjoyable. You have shown me how professional potters can achieve repeatable results. Thank you for the GREAT video!!!🤗
Yep watched to the end, wrote down all the materials and tools etc I need to purchase and saved the video fir when I’m proficient enough to begin making my first teapot. Thank you my teacher!
Really beautiful artwork that can be cherished over many generations! You have a true gift. ❤ watching until the end was wonderful
I've taken multiple pottery classes as part of my college degree and just a few of your videos taught me more than those classes ever did! This makes me want to give pottery another shot!
Understanding the details of the process builds an appreciation for the price of such workmanship.
Thank you for the great explanation. When I learned to make teapots we were told to measure the tip of the spout with the top of the teapot in order to insure proper pouring. But yours are perfect, so it seems like you have that aspect down pat. Your teapots are beautiful.
I watched every second of it. Never paid much attention to pottery or glazes, but these are absolutely beautiful. I love your obsession over the details and I'm hoping to own one of your pieces one day!
Florian always goes the extra mile. Impressive craftsmanship
you really cant see the detail in the glaze until you see the photos, lovely work!
