About the Artist

Hi, I'm Jay. I have been selling for a few years now at markets. I make fun and playful ceramic home goods and kitchenware that are not a production potter's standard bowls and plates.


Lately, I am focusing on truly unique multi-tier incense fountains, shadow casting candle holders, planters, and a variety of vases (including tiny pots!). I do offer the old basics of mugs, bowls, and the like, in sets and one of kind of pieces, but no two items are ever exactly the same - cousins not twins, because art is about a practice more than perfection. 

Want to take a piece home? 

Great! Here are a few options on how we can do that:

Shipping one of a kind pieces can occasionally end in heartbreak. Will I ship you something if you really want it? Of course, but with the understanding that if something goes wrong it can't actually be replicated, only replaced. 

Shipping costs are not included in prices below. 

Instead, find me at a market! Or swing by the studio for pick up. Name a time and date and I would be more than happy to meet you there for a pick up.
