A Piece of Glazed Earth

If you have a love of handmade pottery than you need to know about Glazed Earth!  Glazed Earth pottery is unique, colorful and well crafted.  Each piece is made with care, using white earthenware clay or red earthenware clay.  Slabs are rolled to their desired thickness and then pressed with stamps, lace, doilies, handmade stamps and found objects to create the desired textures and impressions.  All glazes are food safe and each piece is one of a kind!
