5 out of 5 starsI love my roly-poly soap dispenser. It is beautiful in its simplicity and craft. I will seek out this shop regularly to see what other gems have been created.

Getting a handle on things.
Grounded, centered, rooted
Pottery is a labor of love for me. In other parts of my life I am an archaeologist, a gardener, and a student of yoga. Along with pottery, these passions ground me to the earth, center me within myself, and connect me to a deep human history of craft production. It is only when I am centered and grounded that I am my best as a partner, a mother, and a teacher.
I work in stoneware, which is solid and strong. I throw with white clay, fired to more than 2000° F in my home studio in western Massachusetts. I use a variety of glazes, but am interested in using glaze to accentuate form. All glazes are food-safe, lead-free, and can be put in the microwave and dishwasher, unless otherwise indicated.
I love to see my pottery functioning in the world! It is meant to be used, and loved, as I have loved making it.
