Helen Cattell is a potter who, together with her daughter Danielle, are Good Hope Pottery.
After 32 years owning and operating a Sydney based business, pottery for Helen has been the motivation for a slower paced lifestyle.
"As we slow down, we start to notice the beauty in our surroundings. In the perfection and the imperfection of our natural environment and how this in turn influences the perception of our art."
Helen’s pieces are produced at their property at Good Hope, surrounded by the most beautiful of natural environments, bordered by the waters of Lake Burrinjuck and the surrounding hills, with views to the Brindabella Mountain range.
"Good Hope for us has been slow living with mindfully made pottery."
After this change of lifestyle Helen has leaned toward the beauty in the feminine form with the colours and the textures of the natural world, made with the slow-moving pace of coil pottery.

“Flannel Flower is a colourful sculptural vase with large elongated petals reflecting the flannel flower. She has a wide base and a narrow rim, coated on the outside with a jade celadon glaze with a crackle effect. She has a narrow band of a leaf design around the waist of the vase. The vase is not waterproof.”
