Top O' Tater Pottery
Blue and white pottery has been a part of mans history since ancient times. People of all cultures have appreciated its beauty, whether the piece was functional or decorative. As we hold a blue and white mug or bowl in the present, we are connected to these people by its common appreciation.
The hand formed and decorated stoneware is made in Southern Vermont. The designing and production of this pottery is the work of one person. The uncomplicated shapes provide a wonderful surface for the delicate cobalt oxide brushwork, which has been influence by American Crewel, Norwegian Rose Maling, and Indian Bead Work.
Each Piece is made by hand, either on a potter’s wheel or from a slab of clay molded around a form. The decorations are made individually, without patterns, on the unfired clay. After the brushwork is fired onto the pot, it is dipped in a lead free glaze and fired again to approximately 2300° F. Although this pottery is stoneware, and very durable, care should be taken in its use. Please enjoy your oven-proof, dishwasher safe, lead free and microwavable connection to the past
