‘Walter Keeler makes ambitious, intelligent functional pots. These qualities stem from his passion for history, for craft and for stories told through everyday things. As a child he unearthed broken pots on the banks of the Thames and was fascinated to learn how they were made and used.
As a student and teacher during the early sixties, he found himself at the heart of the emerging and vibrant studio pottery movement. Today, with over forty years of making and teaching to his name, he continues to delight us with his distinctive approach to salt and earthenware glazes, which clothe the pots in tactile and tempting colours and textures.
His work can be found in museum collections around the world, as well as our kitchens and dining rooms. For many, Walter Keeler’s pots represent the very best in contemporary studio pottery, combining the skills of a craftsperson with an individual voice’. Julia Pitts. Essays by Emmanuel Cooper and Amanda Fielding.

‘Mae Walter Keeler yn gwneud potiau defnyddiol, uchelgeisiol a synhwyrol. Dyma ansoddau sy’n tarddu o’i angerdd tuag at hanes, am grefft ac am storïau’n cael eu hadrodd drwy bethau bob dydd. Fel plentyn arferai durio am ddarnau o hen botiau ar lannau’r Tafwys, wrth ei fodd yn dysgu sut oeddynt yn cael eu gwneud a’u defnyddio.
Fel myfyriwr ac athro yn ystod y chwedegau cynnar, cafodd ei hun ynghanol y symudiad crochenwaith stiwdio bywiog oedd yn datblygu. Heddiw, gyda deugain mlynedd a mwy o wneud a dysgu i’w enw, mae’n parhau i’n difyrru gyda’i ymdriniaeth nodedig o wydreddau halen a phriddwaith, yn gorchuddio’r potiau mewn lliwiau a gweuad dengar a chyffyrddadwy.
Gellir canfod ei waith mewn casgliadau amgueddfaol dros y byd, yn ogystal â’n ceginau a’n stafelloedd byw ni. I lawer mae potiau Walter Keeler yn cynrychioli’r gorau bosib mewn crochenwaith stiwdio cyfoes, gan gyfuno sgiliau crefftwr gyda llais unigol’. Julia Pitts. Traethodau gan Emmanuel Cooper ac Amanda Fielding.
