Beautiful surfaces are achieved leaving the outside of the pot unglazed in places allowing the clay to speak, as well as by using ancient simple feldspathic glazes and oxides. I am also inspired by the lifelong research and learning my ceramic practice brings me. A large selection of vases, teapots, mugs, bowls, and other tableware are offered for sale for your pleasure and for beautiful gifts.
