Cups by Steve and Alexis O'Connell of Fermoyle Pottery: A selection of schochu cups for Takashi Miyakazi of Ichigo Ichie, Cork. Bob would tell the trainee potter Stephen, “Make it in any colour you like, but all the bastards like is blue”. He met his wife Alexis, a fine art photographer, by chance when she was on her way home to Australia. Fermoyle Pottery was born. The collaboration took six months of work, but along the way it changed the nature of Fermoyle Pottery.
