Forty plus years making pots, how fortunate is THAT?
I went to Bennington College to study painting in 1983 but when I saw the ceramics studio my life changed. I would have been a terrible painter anyway. After several years of study and an apprenticeship I went full-time into pottery in New Hampshire in 1997, moving to upstate NY in 2006. Although I have taught pottery in elementary and high school and at the open studios of University of Illinois-Chicago and Cornell University, my focus has always been on making bright and fun pottery. Clay is infinite and I love exploring all the possibilities.

OMG! First, Gary's customer service is top-notch. Immediately after placing the order, I received an email letting me know he would be packaging up the mug and shipping USPS the following day and would provide a tracking number. And he did. It arrived to my aunt, who LOVES it!, in perfect condition. You never know when ordering ceramics, but this was absolutely flawless. And did I mention my aunt loves it? Because she does. I wouldn't hesitate to order again and again.

Ohhhhhhhhh thank you :) I really appreciate it! Customer service: I know what I would like to hear from a seller if I order something, that is good comunication and reassurance. You don't want to be wondering what is going on! And I have shipped a lot of pots, and they aren't plush toys, you have to use a ton of packaging for safe shipping. Thanks again!

This is my favorite mug! It’s so cute and fits so much tea. Whenever I’m having a bad day my husband brings me tea in it and my day instantly turns around. I broke it recently and reached out to the seller when I noticed it was out of stock. He made a new one and sent me a special link so I could replace it asap. Great mug and great seller! Highly recommend :)

This is maybe the nicest review EVER, thank you :)

Really good quality mug! The shipping was actually super fast and the packaging was impressive, I don’t think there was any possible way the mug was going to shatter lol
