Clayton Pottery
For over 20 years, my pottery journey has been fueled by passion and creativity! Each piece is a new challenge, a reflection of my growth. The greatest compliment I can receive is when someone chooses to take my work home.
Dougz Mugz
One of a kind, often with carving, unglazed sections and unique glaze combinations. These are not your average little mugs. These are large scale mugs for drinks and soup with unique carving, glaze and other decoration.
Genevieve Bensason
Genevieve’s mugs are thoughtfully designed with comfortable, inviting forms. She works with shino glazes in a gas kiln, allowing for natural, one-of-a-kind finishes. Each mug is made to be both practical and uniquely special.
Haus of Nie
Haus of Nie (“knee”) focuses primarily on design and practicality, with slip and glaze painting as their primary choice for embellishment. While no two mugs are the same, all are made with the intention of producing ease and joy when used.
