BEHIND THE SCENES OF ICONIC BRITISH POTTERY CORNISHWARE

[@jillclark3630]

With all of the turmoil in the world, your channel is a place I can come and relax.

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much!

[@rowandowland1391]

This was so fascinating. Rebecca is a wonderful ambassador for Cornishware. We had no idea there were so many steps in the process and that the product is hand made. We're ordering some now. Thank you

[@KirstenJoerg]

Isn't Rebecca just delightful! She was incredible and we feel very honoured! Thank you so much for watching!

[@margiechism]

Excellent video ■ really enjoyed! M

[@dianeadams9537]

THANK YOU FOR THIS FASCINATING LOVELY CORNISHWARE TOUR!!! 💖💖💖💖💖

[@KirstenJoerg]

You are very welcome!

[@VionaBee]

This was so special. I love when things are handmade, it makes me appreciate them even more. The dipping process was my favorite part, it really looks like magic. And, bravo Jörg, you showed us, again, you are one skillful man. 👌😊

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thank you so much! Yes, the dipping process is so so fascinating!

[@lauriedunn6198]

So much hand work!

[@saschamudge2311]

Nothing more beautiful than British pottery, you have shown us so much over the years, thankyou. Love your channel 😍

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thank you so much!

[@bridgetoconnor7229]

Such a cheery pottery design! Love the red color too! It's the mug that smiles!!

[@KirstenJoerg]

I agree, it just makes you happy!

[@daisychainhikes]

Thank you both for this wonderful, fascinating tour. In the last few years I have felt dubious - almost ashamed - to be British, as our identity has been watered down. But I thank you for reminding me how much we have to be proud of and I am rediscovering my love for my own country as I watch your channel🙏🇬🇧

[@KirstenJoerg]

Awww I'm so so glad you enjoyed it! Sending so much love!

[@Sari.w.n]

Always special to get your little message ♥. TY,

[@KimSincox]

Absolutely charming! Thank you so much for sharing! I share your weakness for ceramics.

[@Teacup29]

Lovely video thank you, Andrea I am British but live overseas and miss all that is wonderful about the British Isles. Britain has a very negative media and a lot of pressure groups demeaning the country but it is a compassionate country and a great place to live.

[@UtaZ.234]

You can be very proud to be british !! I love your country and my family and me can't wait to come to England and Scotland next summer again. It is such a beautiful country ! 🇬🇧♥️

[@lindsaysumrow3240]

I can't tell you how much I enjoy your videos. What a lovely escape to come on and enter your beautiful and creative world in England. I live in Houston, Texas and I can't describe how different life is here! You're giving me so many great ideas for my next trip to the UK. Thanks so much, Kirsten and Joerg!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thank you so much Lindsay!

[@chuiga2935]

I really appreciate how the pottery is handmade. It's a magical process.

[@maryoleary2037]

My mother had a set of blue and white Cornishware, for eight. There were plates, mugs, cereal bowls, and she also had a teapot, cream and sugar, pepper and salt and I believe a few serving bowls. One day I was visiting and there was a whole new china set. I asked what had happened to the Cornishware and she said she gave it to a charity thrift shop and purchased something more modern. I almost wept, saying, "Why didn't you give it to me, if you were getting rid of it?" She thought I would find it too old fashioned. I would have loved to have had the Cornishware and of course, I now realize the monetary value to it.

[@DeborahMaufer]

Oh, how disappointing! 🥺 Sorry that happened to you.

[@KirstenJoerg]

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that! Sending you much love.

[@sylviekins]

And it has such a beautiful weight and feel to it.

[@carolhardie7513]

Oh wow, how upsetting for you😢 I would have been devastated!

[@juliaclapton1141]

Oh dear that's a shame. But you have something more precious than the China. Your memories of your mum which will stay in your heart. Buy yourself something nice in China and remember your mum with love x

[@karenwalker7750]

I didn't realise there were so many colours. Love love love them.

[@lizwallace273]

I love this episode! Cornishware is beautiful and I had no idea it is still made by hand! It is so classic and I admire it even more having seen the craftspeople creating it. Rebecca is charming and you did such a good job interviewing her.

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much!

[@michaelhart895]

T.G Green & Co Ltd in Church Gresley, South Derbyshire were the original manufactures of blue striped Cornish ware 1864-2007 . Production of Cornish ware started in the early 1920s at the time known as E-blue .it employed in its hat day up to 1000 people . I am from a nearby village in South Derbyshire and remember TG green and it’s closure . I understood production was shipped abroad, it is great to see production of an old English brand coming back to England.

[@alloneyogurt2150]

Maybe that explains the piece I bought off Amazon that has the trademark stamp and the box shows 3 copyrights but says 'made in china'.

[@Amelia-uf6hq]

I used to live not too far away and loved the factory shop, I still have lots of lovely pieces, there were lots of bargains!

[@PaulaShoaf]

Thank you for sharing this delightful tour , how veery interesting !! I just love the U.K it has so much to offer ! Take care. Paula from USA

[@denisemarino3021]

From the USA. I never knew how labor intensive it is to produce this pottery. It's truly amazing. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@deniseopalka7771]

Loved this video. What a pleasure to see how the Cornishware is made. Thank you so much for sharing.🍁

[@KirstenJoerg]

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!

[@VicKest-n5e]

My husband bought me a red and white Cornishware teapot from this company for my birthday just a month ago. It is exquisite. I was entranced watching how these beautiful pieces are made. I cannot wait to add to my collection. From near Atlanta, GA, USA.

[@KirstenJoerg]

Oh how lovely! Their teapots are so gorgeous!

[@lauriedunn6198]

If Joerg ever wants a career change, I think they would hire him

[@gailpeczkis5292]

Hi loved the behind the scenes of the Cornishware pottery facility. Very interesting. Just when I started to love Burleigh pottery now I have another to love. I am with you Kirsten I love crockery to the point of having too much of it. That was cool to see Joerge painting his own plate, and good job. This was such a fun video. Thank you!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much Gail!

[@susandelongis885]

Thank you for this fascinating video! It’s a joy to see you having such a wonderful time exploring and sharing British arts and crafts. I’d never guess there were so many steps in creating their hand made mugs!

[@KirstenJoerg]

You are so welcome! I know, it makes you appreciate the brand so very much!

[@lynnelovett8999]

Interesting and beautiful. Thank you for sharing Ms. Kirsten. Have a blessed day.

[@sherrypilkington6406]

I loved this video. It was so interesting and informative. Living in the States I was not aware of Corningware mugs, saucers, Teapots etc. I fell in love them them. See what you've done 🤣🤣. You have started me down this rabbit hole and I am loving it. Thank you so much for doing this. Would love to see more content like this. ❤

[@carmenmorrondo2346]

Cornishware ist wunderschön. Eure Videos gehören wirklich zu meinen Lieblingsvideos, ich lerne so viel Neues kennen. Danke euch.

[@KirstenJoerg]

[@martinalenz5029]

One can realize that Rebecca s so much involved and that she really loves what they are all doing there. I agree with you, dear Kirsten, Cornish Blue and Cornish Red are mst beautiful.❤

[@jillclark6076]

I loved this video! I'm with you Kirsten. I'm all about plates and dishes. Joreg is one talented gent.

Thanks so much!

[@TravelswithTanya]

I think you are calming and soothing and ...simply MARVELOUS!🍁

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much!

[@susanburnside111]

Kirsten and Jeorg, I loved this video. I’m relatively new to your channel. I stumbled across it back in August when your video about your dream cottage, the Georgian gate house at the entrance to Wolterton Hall, was suggested. Intrigued, I decided to watch it and I’m so glad I did. It was delightful. I immediately subscribed to your channel, hit the notification bell (as one does) and I’ve been following your adventures at home, in the kitchen and out and about, ever since. Of course, I had to go back to the very beginning and catch up. I cannot express just how much I enjoy everything you do. Your videos fill me with such pleasure and inspiration and I enjoy the way you interact with each other and with us, your viewers. I had made a solemn promise to myself not to watch any of your Christmas videos until sometime in December. However, I recently succumbed to temptation and I’m so happy I did. A few days ago, I watched an older video in which you were decorating your Christmas tree and you put a wicker skirt at the base. I loved it and searched online and, I’m happy to say, I bought one today! It’s a good thing my resolve was weak and I broke that promise to myself. I want to thank you, with all my heart, for everything you do, and I look forward to your next video. Take care and bye for now🙂💕

[@KirstenJoerg]

Oh Susan, you are so very kind, thank you so much for your lovely words! I hope you enjoy your wicker skirt for your Christmas tree, we think it just looks lovely around a tree. Sending much love!

[@Hollysuzette33]

Beautiful facility. The pieces are fired 3 times, which I would have never guessed. Thank you for this visit.

[@KirstenJoerg]

You are so welcome!

[@gayeflockheart4258]

Haven't had much interest in Cornishware til now and I have fallen in love ❤❤ and ❤😅

[@pennypincher5495]

What a fascinating insight into Cornishware. I also didn’t realise that the name came from the clay and not the place of origin. I hope you get to keep the plate that Jeorg made such a good job of. You’re interviewing skills are so natural I really enjoyed listening xx

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so so much!

[@lynnmoore4669]

Oh looking forward….striped pottery..good times! ❤

[@Lynn11663]

Wow! Beautiful and so fascinating. Joerg is a natural after getting past his "deer caught in the headlight look." Dipping into the paint is so satisfying to my OCD. Thanks.

[@artemandalas1305]

Thanks You for share this amazing and adorable art tecnique and these passion ! Like an artist i Always Will Say thanks You for thé détails and lovely vidéo👏😉🎨🖌️One big Bravo for Joerg too 👏

That was such a wonderful tour of the pottery making process. The Cornishware is so gorgeous. Thank you Kirsten and Joerg for another amazing video.

[@KirstenJoerg]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Omg, ,love this, handmade, the colors are beautiful and as always amazing video. Thank you very much!!!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thank you so much!

[@lindaedwards7840]

Good morning to you both, such a fascinating video. I also like to collect Cornish ware, I have a few older items from TG Green, one in particular is a brown glazed teapot which was discontinued some years ago, it is a smaller one 2 cup server. Classic lines and lovely on my dresser, also it gets used a lot.my favourite is the blue and white.pottery. Lovely to see the living museums are doing so well again. I particularly like visiting Telford area. Such a nice way to see the countryside too. Great visit. Thankyou .🤗🎉

[@vintagemoss9578]

I love cornishware! Time to make a new purchase🎉

[@KirstenJoerg]

❤️❤️❤️

[@beverleering8469]

Oh Kirsten, that was wonderful. I had no idea that Cornishware was handmade and didn’t come from Cornwall 😊 I have a few pieces we picked up in England in the blue color, but I love them all. You take us to the most wonderful places. Joerg looked pretty skilled and relaxed painting the plate. I appreciate Cornishware even more now and would like a few more pieces! Thank you..

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much Beverlee - such a wonderful brand!

[@christinecook377]

WOW! What a long tedious process. Cudos to the workers who take the time and care of producing such a lovely product. I would have never thought all those pieces were made by hand. Thank you for showing a truly old way of doing things.

[@marilyneves8856]

Thank you so much Kirsten and Joerg, it was very interesting to see the whole process of making Cornishware and lovely to know that it is totally made in the UK. My favourite is the traditional blue and white!

[@KirstenJoerg]

You are so very welcome! Oh yes, the blue and white is so beyond beautiful!

[@CaponeCabin]

This was so uplifting! How something so positive as company growth came from lock down! A ray of sunshine from the clouds, how absolutely wonderful! I think Joerg did a wonderful job! Then again, he does a great job at painting and wall papering ❤

[@KirstenJoerg]

We are so glad you enjoyed it! I agree, really happy for Cornishware that they're doing so well. We are excited for Joerg's plate to arrive and we will definitely share it in one of our videos.

[@chintzgirl]

Thank you so much for sharing this video. I love Cornishware and have a small collection. Such fun to see the factory. Thanks again xx

[@KirstenJoerg]

Oh so glad you do! Thank you so much for watching!

[@geoffreycampbell8161]

How wonderful. I’ve yet to purchase any Cornishware, however I do have a passion for country living UK editions. And just got a new magazine today, we are a little behind you in the UK being in Australia. And like you Kirsten, I also find it relaxing. And today at Harry Harthogs I came across a 2024 calendar of Willam Morris designs! Thought of you both straight away. Thankyou for the wonderful tour, it was really interesting. All the best, take care.😃

[@lindamasson3094]

Seeing the process really helps one appreciate the uniqueness if the product. Thank you!

[@DJI1956]

Какая красота! Очень хочу такой чайник и чашку! Уютная посуда, очень милая! Спасибо за видео!

I so enjoyed this video and how lovely was Rebecca 😊 you can tell how much she loves her job!

[@KirstenJoerg]

She does, she is an amazing young woman.

[@goldenineke]

Wow that was so fascinating Kirsten and Joerg. I’m a blue and white girl myself with pieces featured throughout my kitchen. Plus I’d love one of those aprons!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much! Yes, love the aprons too.

[@bettymaugeri7316]

[@KirstenJoerg]

The most perfect Christmas gifts indeed!

[@nadine1818]

Absolutely loved this video. We used to have cornishware growing up and it was a delight seeing it come back and how she and her dad are running an iconic company. I share your enthusiasm and will be making my own purchase!

[@meredithheath5272]

Wonderful! Thank you for ending with unwrapping two new, red Cornish mugs! The stripes are just the right width to have a fairly strong, yet somewhat whimsical presence - no matter what color mug(s) you choose! The design is so smart - it goes with anything, whether old fashioned or modern - well chosen design! ( I would have a hard time choosing which colors, too! The red is a fabulous choice!!! ❤!)

[@joannbaumann4028]

Sweet to have a crockery problem!

[@britishlady4580]

Bei der Cornishware kann ich mich nie entscheiden, welche Farbe ich am schönsten finde 🤔deshalb haben wir gleich mehrere 😉. Echt interessant mal die Herstellung zu sehen! Super, dass Jörg auch mal ausprobieren konnte, wie es geht( finde, er hat es sehr gut gemacht 👌). Grüße von Regina und Jörg aus Köln ☔️

Fascinating! I loved the “magic” of the painted stripes being resisted by the wax on the bisque ware.

[@dawncampbell9385]

Yes!! My favorite

[@debrap947]

I loved this tour thank you so much! I love the little green Christmas decoration and might have to splurge on one this year. I have been thrifting here in British Columbia, Canada for over 45 years. Very seldom do I come across Cornishware...but about 5 years ago I found a gold and white original Cornishware 1 pint Dreadnought Jug for $6!!! It is a treasure for me indeed. 🤗 God bless...hellooooo Joerg where ever you are. 😁

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much! Oh I agree, the Christmas baubles are so lovely. Wow, so glad you stumbled upon a dreadnought jug at such a great price.

[@angelavorhees5946]

This was so relaxing and informative. Rebecca was so sweet. Thank you for sharing your tour with all of us. I had physical therapy today and needed something calming to watch before bedtime. Your blouse was beautiful, by the way, and looked totally vintage. So happy you got some mugs. 😊

I loved watching Jorg paint the dish! It was a lot of fun to see all the hands on work that goes into the pottery! I have never seen a piece up close!❤❤❤

[@TheEGA4421]

This is what I love about UK. There are many businesses which have been passed down for generations. Even if a new family, as in Rebecca's case, bought a business they keep the history alive by doing the work as generations before, but adding a modern take on it to function properly. The red is my favorite as my kitchen is red. Joreg did wonderful with his plate. I want the apron he was wearing but in red 😊. Thank you Rebecca for the in depth tour. Thank you Joreg and Kirsten for showing your subscribers another beautiful and great part of the UK. Kirsten, I am happy to see your Dad there. I know he has enjoyed himself. ❤
