De Waal’s interest in pottery began at the age of five when he took a ceramics evening class at the Lincoln School of Art.
From 2004 to 2011, de Waal was Professor of Ceramics at the University of Westminster.
He was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2011 Birthday Honours for services to art.
The same year de Waal wrote The Pot Book (Phaidon Press), a colour-illustrated anthology of 300 ceramic vessels.
In September 2016 de Waal collaborated with the artist Ai Weiwei on an exhibition at the Kunsthaus Graz exploring the history of clay.
The exhibition featured works by both artists and from other prominent artists working in ceramics, including Pablo Picasso, Lucio Fontana, Isamu Noguchi, Lucie Rie and Peter Voulkos.
