For the Gardener
Handmade with respect and admiration for work from the hands of English, French, Tuscan, and American potters of the 18th & 19th century, each piece of Guy Wolff Garden Pottery is hand thrown on a potters wheel by accomplished artisans. We carry pots made in Honduras under the Potters for Peace Project: since 1998 Potters for Peace has traveled the world teaching the fabrication of a low-cost ceramic water filter, helping to bring clean, potable water to those who need it most.

 

 

The Perfect Fit for Any Home
Located in New Jersey, Barbara Eigen's ceramic studio offers something unique to specialty stores like ours: high quality, customized, hand-made pottery.  Not only can we design our own collection of vases, planters and tablewarea from a huge selection of colors and finishes, we can also order custom ceramics for our customers.

Cozy All Year Long
Vermont artists Lizi Boyd's quirky and completely charming notecards and wrapping paper have an almost cult following. Many of us have been clamoring for her to branch out into textiles, and to our delight she has introduced a line of lovely quilts and pillow covers. We carry all of the throws in the store, and can easily order larger sizes. These are guaranteed to make you feel happy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Homes Love These
Bringing garden light into the home, these papier mache lamps from Stray Dog Designs are handmade from recycled cement bags by Haitian artisans. The lamps come with silk or paper shades, and their white floral-inspired shapes create graceful and artistic silhouettes. Stray Dog Designs says their core design principles are simple: all items are handmade with careful construction from quality and recycled materials, providing fair wages for local workers in Haiti and Mexico.
