Emmaeli Pottery

As many of you know, I relocated myself and all of my worldly goods (including my pots, and my wheel!) from North Carolina to Minnesota this summer! I am just now getting all of my inventory unpacked, and today fired a full glaze kiln! I'm putting the store on pause for a few weeks while I travel to a couple of festivals with my wares, and to do inventory before the holiday shopping season starts! I should be back up and running with new pieces by mid October. I look forward to hearing from you then!

As a beginning potter, in 2015, I wasn't at all certain of where my newfound love of ceramic artistry would take me. Inspired by memories of old vases in my grandmother's home, I began to explore designs from the early 1900's, and the Arts and Crafts movement.   My designs are strongly influenced by potteries such as Rookwood, Roseville, and Newcomb.  

The name, Emmaeli, in case you're wondering, is from the combination of the names of my four legged companions - my black lab, Emma, and my old tabby cat, Eli.  I didn't want them to feel left out....

I hope you enjoy what you see here, and that you will visit often!
