Clive Sithole (b. 1971) is a well known South African Zulu potter. Sithole initially ran a fashion business, after studying fashion design at the London International School, Johannesburg, Gauteng.

Contra to the tradition that only Zulu women make pottery, he was inspired in 1986 to take up the craft by Philemon Lerata of the Pietermaritzburg Universitys Ceramics Department. In 1997 he joined the Babumbi Clay Project in Durban and attend ceramic classes at Durban University.

His pots are made in the traditional Zulu manner by coil-building and pit-firing. He has won several awards, including an FNB Vita Craft Now Merit Award in 2000 and a First Prize in Trophy Design for Pricewaterhouse Coopers. $\"Pit-fired$
