Emmaeli Pottery

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!

THE CAROLINA CLAY MATTERS GUILD VIRTUAL POTTERY FESTIVAL BEGINS TODAY, OCTOBER 10TH, AND RUNS THROUGH SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17TH!  

Emmaeli Pottery will NOT have a booth at the Fall 2020 Carolina Clay Matters Outdoor Pottery Festival in Charlotte on Saturday, October 10th. Still, I hope that you will plan to attend! It's an open air show, and everyone will be expected to adhere to strict Covid guidelines, vendors and patrons alike.  

 Visit www.carolinaclaymatters.org for more information about the artists participating in each show!

I will be pulling some pieces from the website, and adding others, once the Festival is over,  and there will be new items added to the website before the holidays, so keep checking back!

Thank you for supporting the Charlotte Arts Community, and stay healthy!
