Deirdre Johnson - Functional Pottery
Each piece is individually hand-formed -- either wheel-thrown, hand-built or a combination of the two. The clay is a stoneware fired to 2250-2350ÂșC in either an oxidation (electric) or reduction (gas) atmosphere. We formulate and mix our own glazes. The finished products are safe to use in the microwave, dishwasher, or oven -- and suns, fountains and other outdoor pottery can be left out all year round. Our pots are made to be used daily, combining art with function.
