As with everything else, we’re changing ! Our Web Guru - Cory Gallant - is in full gear to make us up a new home on the net - an interactive home with a central point for Island, Maritime and all the other Potters to throw their 2 cents ( get it? “Throw” your 2 cents… Oh I kill me ) into a Public Formum / Blog. Cory tells us he can have it all up and running for 25 July, so make sure you drop in to take a peek.

Included in the new site will be information on the classes & workshops we offer. In a nutshell… we offer 3-hour workshops for everyone from toddlers, families, couples (date night anyone?) to our elders to explore the inner Artisan in us all. After a workshop you’ll have created a functional piece of pottery to use in your home with pride. OK, practice with me… I Made That ! Nope, not the infamous 2 pound ashtray, but maybe a serving platter or tray? Cindy also offers on-going classes in the studio throughout the year for those who would like to develop their clay talents, either through hand-building or on the wheel, but keep in mind the wheel takes a while to learn.

Drop an email or give us a call to check on availability.

 
ISLAND STONE   CELTIC   TRULY CANADIAN
   
The inspiration for our Island Stone pattern comes from our love of Prince Edward Island’s red dirt roads and sandstone cliffs…   The pieces of our Celtic line of pottery are skillfully incised by hand with a Celtic knot or design…   Our Truly Canadian pattern is created by pressing real Maple leaves onto the sides of our pots while the clay is still soft…

We produce functional stoneware pottery durable enough for everyday use and enjoyment. Our tableware is oven, microwave and dishwasher safe and our glazes are lead free making them safe for food and drink. Avoid subjecting our pottery to any thermal shock. An example of this would be never take a pot from the freezer and put it into a preheated oven. As well, our pots are not intended for cooking directly over the stove element or open flame.

Our kitchen and tableware pieces are consistently made throughout the year. Customers wanting to collect sets (of any desired quantity) can do so slowly over time.

 
Our mark is a representation of the Chinese symbol meaning “together” or “shoulder to shoulder”. We’ve combined it with our last name to express how we work together as one. Every piece of our pottery has been created, in some way or another, by both our hands so a small portion of both of us goes into our pots and eventually into your home.
