I began creating functional pottery in 1985 taking courses from a local potter in Albany New York.  This hobby quickly became a passion and now I run my own pottery business from a small studio in the basement of my Guilderland New York home. I do not have a retail space of my own, but rely on craft fairs, a few consignment businesses and my web site for sales.

All of the pieces that you see on the web site are handmade using either wheel thrown, slab or extruded pieces.  I use stoneware clay and fire at cone 6 oxidation.  The glazes are mixed by me.  Many are my own formulations.  They are all lead free.  Functional pieces are microwaveable and dishwasher safe.  Because all items are individually made, they vary slightly.

Functional stoneware pottery in a variety of colors.  All pottery is microwavable, lead free, and dishwasher safe.
