Professional Electric Potters Wheel for Studios, Schools and Serious Makers
The Staffordshire Potters Wheel is a traditional, professional electric pottery wheel designed for long-term studio use, smooth throwing and dependable performance. Built around a strong polished wooden cabinet, this Gladstone potters wheel offers the stability, control and comfort needed by schools, colleges, ceramic studios and experienced potters.
Designed to give quiet, vibration-free control across the speed range, the Staffordshire wheel uses a reliable variable speed drive system with excellent torque response. It includes a large one-piece splash tray with built-in drain, an adjustable upholstered seat, a 12 inch aluminium wheel head and a fully reversible drive, making it a strong choice for professional throwing, teaching and regular studio production.
Why Choose the Staffordshire Potters Wheel?
This wheel is built for potters who want a substantial, comfortable and long-lasting throwing setup rather than a lightweight hobby wheel. The wooden cabinet gives the wheel a solid working base, while the adjustable seat and integrated shelf help create a practical workstation for throwing, trimming and teaching.
The Staffordshire is especially well suited to ceramic studios and education settings where reliability matters. Its industrial-rated motor, heavy duty sealed bearings and reversible control make it a dependable option for regular use by different potters across a wide range of throwing styles.

Built for Comfort and Long-Term Use
The Staffordshire potters wheel is designed around a comfortable seated throwing position, with the adjustable seat allowing users to set the working height to suit their posture. The integral shelf provides useful storage space close to the wheel, while the large splash tray helps contain water and clay during throwing.
The polished cabinet is made from a strong, sustainably sourced material and finished to a high standard, giving the wheel a traditional studio appearance while still providing the durability required for regular use.
