    About

    • Here is my friend getting ready for the painting process.
    • Hand painting ceramics takes a steady hand!
    • A colorful presentation is as important as the design!
    • The process of painting starts with the design. Here the intricate design is carefully sketched.
    • The process of making natural dyes

    Taking a Chance to Do Something I Love!

    While on an extended trip to Turkey in 2007, I became totally captivated by the people and preservation of the fine arts culture. I visited artist workshops, went to remote villages to see rugs being woven, learned how to make natural dyes, and met people who remain my friends to this day. I thought the ceramic work was breathtaking and knew that sharing this beautiful work with others was something I had to do.

    I came home with contacts and a plan, resigned from my job in Corporate America, and opened my globalMarsha shop in 2008. I survived the Great Recession and flourished because good quality arts and textiles will always find their market.

    I hope you enjoy your trip through our Etsy site and please contact us with questions or special requests. If you are buying a gift for someone, please leave your name and message so we can enclose a free gift card. Gift wrapping is also free! Happy shopping!

    Frequently asked questions
    Gift wrapping and packaging

    Sometimes shippers are not careful and ceramics arrive broken. If this happens, take a picture of the broken item and email us. We will offer you an exchange or refund your money right away.
    Please note that shipping costs are not refundable.

    Gift wrapping and packaging

    The US postal service is increasing shipping rates so unfortunately we are raising our shipping rates too starting in 2019. This increase won't be much, but we do have to cover our costs to ship, especially for large items in over-sized boxes, that contain breakable items such as large ceramic bowls and platters.

    Gift wrapping and packaging

    This past year Etsy has encouraged sellers to offer "free" shipping. What this usually means is that the cost of shipping is absorbed into the cost of the item. When a shop like mine ships large boxes full of breakable items, there is a lot of cost involved with that for both the shipping materials and actual shipping fee to your location. I have opted to keep shipping costs separate from the total cost of the item so the actual shipping cost is transparent for you. WE REGULARLY GIVE SHIPPING REFUNDS IF YOU HAVE PAID MORE FOR SHIPPING THAN IT COSTS TO SEND.
