Just a pinch!

I met fellow crafter friend Dennis at a craft show many years ago.  I discovered he liked Indian food as much as I did!  Anyway, fast forward about ten years and Dennis and his wife are still making beautiful, functional pottery including these sweet little 3 inch tall "pinched pots".    Microwave and dishwasher safe, they are a great size for salad dressings, syrup, melted butter, milk for coffee, toothpicks, and can serve equally well as a little vase for flowers.   They have "pinched in" indentations so that people like to hold them.   I try to always have a nice selection of these to choose from in the Gallery.  Come and get em!

Interesting Characters...first of series

Interesting Characters…
that’s who Keith is.  Keith is a North Carolina potter and a man who beats to his own drum.  I think he communicates best in glazes…luxurious floating glazes he calls “ocean” and “fire” that remind me of far away times and places like Krakatoa, Vesuvius, or Sumatra.  If I’m buying a teapot, a mug, a vase…I want to hear a story about the pot.  With Keith’s work,  it speaks for itself.  Teamugs, coffee mugs, teapots, teabag holders, coasters, mini vases, vases, lotion bottles, & bath cups.
