1 out of 5 starsI ordered this mug as a Christmas present and I knew it was going to come late which was fine. The seller told me she was going to ship it on 12/22, but never did. She created the label, but never shipped it (per the USPS tracking number on the order). She was super responsive to my order before 12/22 but then right after that date I never heard from her again. I hope this person isn’t a scam artist and if something bad happened I hope she is okay. Thanks to the Etsy team as they were able to help give me my money back.

5 out of 5 starsThe seller was a pleasure to work with and helped me get the item on time for my anniversary. My wife absolutely LOVES her shark! Every time she puts her rings in it she gives a little squeal and says "it's so cute"!

5 out of 5 starsI just love my new salt shark. It makes me smile every time I see it, and it is beautifully crafted. She is truly an artist. They are made to order, and I failed to notice that right off the bat, but communication with her was excellent and she was able to mail it out quickly. Really great service too! Thanks so much! I'm a bug fan!

Handcrafted Functional Art Pottery by Stacy G Smith in North Carolina
I'm a wife, mother, professional potter with a BFA from East Carolina University, a gardener, animal and all around nature lover.
I was hooked on clay after my first ceramics class in college and took as many classes as I could, then after graduation I started teaching k-12 Art in the public schools. I've worked in Mississippi, Venezuela and Colorado. I taught for twelve years before I opened my own pottery studio and etsy shop. Half of those years were spent teaching high-school ceramics and sculpture. I loved and learned so much from teaching, but now I'm living my dream as a professional art potter working from my home.
I do all the clay design and production as well as the shipping, marketing and answering of emails. My talented husband helps with computer problems, kiln maintenance, studio music, lighting, furniture building and heavy lifting. Don't know what I'd do without him.
I work hard to make beautiful and interesting things that are useful and durable with good craftsmanship, attention to design, form and glaze application. I use only the highest quality clay and glazes. I'm primarily using three types of high fire clays, a red stoneware, a white stoneware and a nice white porcelain. I use a variety of techniques for surface decoration such as: hand-brushed glazing, carved slip designs or sgraffito, underglaze painting, carving or incising and stamping.
My inventory is always growing and changing and new work is being posted regularly so please check back often! I check my shop daily and ship using US Priority Mail usually within 24-48 hours of purchase.
Thank you for taking time to look at my work!
