Our Design Philosophy Every piece starts on a trail. We photograph wildflowers, insects, and plants in the Blue Ridge Mountains, translate them into line drawings, and burn them onto silk screens for underglaze transfer onto wheel-thrown stoneware. The result is functional pottery — plates, mugs, bowls — rooted in the natural world just outside Asheville. We believe beautiful objects should be used, not displayed. That conviction runs in the family: Kelsey's father is a master chairmaker who has spent a lifetime making things meant to be sat in, eaten from, and lived with.
