AUDBALL POTTERY STUDIO

Audball was birthed from a love of playing with clay. Our pottery is inspired by childlike wonder, shapes, and the lust for peace that can sometime only be found in nature.

The sweet & lowdown

Juxtaposition began as an outgrowth of Colonial Folk Art Studio and Gallery. In 2017, we decided that the studio and the gallery both needed more room to flourish. And as luck would have it, the other half of our building became available in January 2018.

An so it begins. Our boys helped take down the partition seperating sealing the area between the spaces and … BOOM … we expanded.

So why the rebranding? Simple. We evolved into more than a small ecclectic gallery and studio into a gallery needing more room to be funky and a studio begging for more space. As for the name, its more complicated. Think in terms of balance and wanting see art and gifts in a different perspective … especially a pespective gained by having them next to each other.

Our art and gifts offer a fun glympse into who we are. Our kids often say our house is a gallery — a gallery offering a contrast between traditional art and outsider art. That’s the same thing you find in Juxtaposition, a juxtaposition of art styles. Pick and choose your favorite(s). Give them to friends or put them in the perfect place in your office or home.

See you in the gallery!

We love connecting with our customers and realize that without your support, we wouldn’t exist. Thank you for visiting our website and your continued support over the years as we have transitioned!

Chad and Rachel Walker live in Cartersville, GA and have 4 children: Haven, Dallas, Tripp, and Jackson. In our free time, we enjoy traveling and spending time with family.

As a buyer for a prominent food ingredient distributor, I see a fair amount of product come through my hands with samples galore. About three years ago, while evaluating a frozen fruit supplier, I asked for a sample of their frozen blackberries expecting to get a pound or so shipped to my attention. What showed up at my doorstep was a 50 lb box with more than I knew what to do with or store for an extended period of time. Without wanting the fruit to go to waste, I quickly jumped on the internet to find ideas. I settled on a jam recipe and went to work making my first batch. Three years and many batch/flavor combinations passed along to a trusted panel of taste testers made up of family, friends and friends of friends later, I’m proud to bring you the Small Batch Jam Co.

Being in the food industry, I am no stranger to food safety regulations. Although the CA Cottage Food Permit would have been a safe place to start, I wanted to reach a broader customer base than what this permit allowed. The Small Batch Jam Co. is an FDA registered sole proprietorship in the city of Pacifica, CA operating out of a licensed and permitted commercial kitchen certified by the San Mateo County Health System and audited by food inspectors at regular intervals. In order to operate in the commercial kitchen, I hold my Food Safety Managers Certificate along with a food liability insurance plan that I hope to never need. Your safety is my utmost concern.

“Our promise to you is that our small batches of all natural, hand-made fruit preserves are made with the highest quality ingredients sourced from fresh fruit stands, farmers markets and hardworking growers while using the same home-style cooking and canning techniques that your grandma used. But don’t worry, we won’t tell her you like ours better… Enjoy!!”

After several years of selling honey at farmers markets and festivals, the reality hit that there was a need for more space and a year round sales outlet for the honey, candles, and the full line of skin care essentials that had grown from their “beekeeping hobby”. In 2015, the Wehr’s opened their brick and mortar store on US 129 which is the main road in Robbinsville, NC.

In 2017 Wehrloom Honey became a meadery (winery specializing in making honey wine) which has proven to be a wonderful and exciting addition to all that goes on at Wehrloom. So, no matter why you’re in Robbinsville, a hike, a drive, or just to get away, make sure to come visit Wehrloom Honey and spend the day enjoying the unique experience of catching a glimpse of the full spectrum of all that bees do.

Born in East Tennessee, surrounded by the beauty of nature and the incredible influence of grandmothers who were "makers of things", I developed an acute appreciation of art and nature. I have learned from and been influenced by several teachers, now and past, who have taken time to share and get excited along with me. Having worked in various mediums, making pots is a very special love. My pottery is wheel-thrown and handbuilt from stoneware and porcelain clays. I love fish and birds and perching them on top of my pots. I never fail to get a rush from modeling a carolina wren from Carolina clay. Working in clay is a passion that gives me satisfaction in an abundance of ways and continually teaches me.
I also make various other items: purses, totes and jewelry from recycled wool and leather clothing.
I live and work at my home studio in Chattanooga, TN where I balance an assortment of work and interests that make a full life.

Dock 6 Pottery is a ceramics studio & gallery, specializing in distinctive handmade pottery, located in the Longfellow neighborhood of Minneapolis.

Pottery is meant to be enjoyed—both on a visual and tactile level. It should catch your eye on a table and should feel satisfying when you pick it up. I want my pottery to be the piece you return to over and over again and enjoy more and more each time you use it.

It is my desire for my pottery to be an extension of myself. When one first looks at my work, I am less concerned about the “WOW” factor, but rather compelled to seek the quieter, more reflective “whoa” factor that comes with truly observing my work.

There is a simplicity about my forms, yet they might not always be simple. I like to play with the duality of things. I hope one notices the movement expressed through the gentle lines and curves and transcendent qualities that defies time.

I believe that my commitment to exceptional, refined forms and honed throwing techniques and my layered glazes separates my work from others. It is my hope that when handling my pieces one can even sense a quality about them that just feels different. Ergonomics, functionality, beauty, integrity, and playfulness are things factor in when I create. I work very intentionally, intuitively and contemplatively and feel that the kind of energy I put into my pottery matters.

Many of my pieces are rooted in rich a history which stylistically and philosophically connects with Mid-Century Modern artists. In my glazes, I have selected a peaceful and more neutral pallet. They are layered (sometime up to 7 layers of glaze) and have depth - within individual pieces and within the whole collection. While not demanding attention, the simple beauty found in my work won’t compete with other pieces within your pottery collection; rather they might prove to be foundational or complementary.

Whether you are having a lovely dinner party for 12, or snuggling up on the couch eating in front of the TV, it is my hope you find the casual elegance of my pottery line will enrich your soulful moments and connections.

Unique and functional pottery pieces created by Susan from Front Porch Pottery here in Chattanooga.

Alex Marshall’s ceramics can be described as beautifully functional sculpture. Many have referred to her work as organic — an elegant mixture of art and chance. But she takes a highly skilled and deliberate approach to her art.

"I wanted to design a line which maintains the intent and authenticity of the individually handcrafted piece," says Alex. "Each piece retains its own integrity, seen in the slight asymmetry, while remaining a clean modern form." When stacked, her plates resemble layers of rock or the gentle lines of a palm frond. This paradox of strength and grace is exactly the juxtaposition with which she feels comfortable. Her signature glazes are layered in naturally composed earthy colors and texture.

We know choosing can be difficult, so we’ve put together groups of items we know work well together and support one another in a retail sales environment. Platters and bowls that can be interchanged always work well for those who enjoy entertaining. Bowl sets are especially welcome as wedding gifts. A few of the most popular colors are Red, Opal, and Sage green.

As an artist raised in the deep South, Lauren transforms the simple beauty and rich heritage that abounded in the Mississippi delta of her youth into visual form. It’s a heritage full of soul and colorful layers and a culture as rich as the fertile delta soil. Although she now resides in Brentwood, Tennessee, with her husband and 2 boys, she still feels the pull of that heritage as well as a new connection to the hills and valleys characteristic of the Tennessee landscape and the familiar spirit of the people who live there.

Using a palette knife to create layer upon layer of color, Lauren works organically to achieve a loose representation of her subject matter reminiscent of the aged buildings and chipped paint of generations past but with modern appeal.  Vibrant color schemes and textured strokes transform ordinary moments into cherished memories.  This ability to elevate every day life - an old church, freshly cut hydrangeas, a lovely view - is at the heart of Lauren’s work and the key to her success. 

Lauren’s work has been featured  several times in HGTV’s Hometown and HGTV’s Property Brothers as well as Traditional Home Magazine, The Cottage Journal Magazine, Nashville Magazine and other publications.  Her work can be seen at laurendunn.co, instagram.com/laurendunnartist, facebook.com/laurendunndesigns and various galleries and shops throughout the southeast.

Lauren’s new line of reproductions stay true to her heartfelt aesthetic, capturing simple moments with deep connection. Her desire to share this sentiment with a wider audience led her to develop high quality products such as her prints on wood that replicate the look and feel of her originals. For a modern twist, Lauren has also created a line of free-standing acrylic blocks, some silhouetting the enclosed image, perfect for a bookshelf or table top display.  

My name is John Minkler and I've been making pottery for about thirteen years. All of my own work is made on the potter's wheel, but many shapes are altered or cut to create ovals, rectangles and squares. I enjoy the challenge of making objects that are not round yet still reflect the use of the wheel. Once the shapes are created great care is taken in adding handles, lids and spouts. I feel that these details are extremely important to the quality of the finished piece.

I find the objects that we use everyday are sometimes taken for granted, so it is a focus of mine to make pottery that is as visually interesting as it is practiced in use. In this spirit, I've created functional ware that brings life to an otherwise ordinary situation. So eat, drink and enjoy!

As owner and artistic director of the Terrafirma studio, Ellen’s creative focus is to design and produce high quality, functional works of art for the table and home using a unique, original process. Patterns are created by painting through textiles and lace using liquid porcelain to produce a distinctive “one of a kind” result. The base of warm, natural stoneware juxtaposed with vibrantly colored and patterned porcelain surfaces achieves the casual yet sophisticated look that has become her signature in both dinnerware and accessories.

Terrafirma products are made entirely by hand and kiln-fired to extremely high temperatures, giving each piece its own personality and great durability. Slight variations in color, texture and surface blushing are the natural and desired result of the hand building and high-firing process and assure each piece of its individuality.

​​Each collectible, copyrighted design is signed and dated. All Terrafirma pieces are food safe and dishwasher safe.

Care for your Terrafirma pieces as you would any fine china.

 I'm a potter who loves to make things and likes to share them. I'll even leave things on beaches, in parks, gardens, and rest stops for people to find. I like to think of my work as my story. Each piece of art that I make is a feeling, a thought, or a small moment in my life that is screaming to get out. I love that I make things that are uniquely my own. In a time where anything you desire can be delivered to your doorstep with a click of a button, I love that I'm able to create things that require time to make. Tobe a maker in a world run by machines is incredibly gratifying. My work is my story. My work is me. 

Thank you for your interest in Allan Ditton Pottery. Each piece is made of high-fired stoneware that is food-safe. Because each piece is designed and made by hand, no two will look identical. The matte textured terra cotta colored glaze found on the rims and tops of all our pieces are water-tight and food-safe. These pieces are safe for the dishwasher and oven, provided you place them in a cool oven and heat them up to cooking temperature along with the food. Mugs and bowls are microwavable safe. Bowls are available in either flower or grass patterns. All other pieces are available in either wavy or vertical patterns.

Liz Kinder's delicate bowls and vases are always surprising customers with their sassy, amusing descriptive cards, which we include with purchase.

Her career as a ceramicist began quite accidentally while selling her bicycle to chef, Joseph Manzare, who after seeing her pieces displayed in her home, promptly orders serving pottery and a large vase for his restaurant in San Francisco.

Since then, Liz has been inundated with orders for her ultra savvy and very un-IKEA pottery. Her colors are unlike anyone we currently carry. She now lives with husband, Tim, children, her kiln and a Siamese cat in Philadelphia. Where she says she is, "Becoming one of those boring people who talks about IKEA kitchen options, drywall, plumbing, utilities, mortgages, and the benefits of radiant heat." Kinder has a BA in Fine Arts from Amherst College in Amherst, MA and a Masters from the Ceramics and Glass department at the Royal Albert Hall in London

Lorraine Oerth says she always knew she was an artist. But it was being a studio potter that combined her love of sculpting, printmaking, painting, and designing. "I am fortunate to work with my family. Paula and Karl Oerth. We have an awesome team of skilled assistants who support the studio's atelier style workshop. We are so grateful that people like what we make. Were it not for our customers, we wouldn't be able to have all of this fun working with clay. Thank you so much." We are the Originators of the now-famous Giving Hearts & Giving Bowls — customers like that each is made one at a time. We offer hundreds of heartfelt words. Each comes with a story card.

VIETRI preserves the celebration of handmade, heritage-inspired collections that support the history and craft of Italian artisans.

We work with some of the top clay and glaze manufacturers in the world who create exceptionally durable clays and high quality glazes. And, we are able to maintain their earthly balance of color, design, strength, and art. We are truly the work of many hands – from the clay to the molder, to the sculptor, to the painter, to the glazer, to the packer, to the shipper, to the salesperson, to the retailer, to you. No mass market. No mass production by metal machinery. Just materials from the earth, worked on by many hands, with a dedication to quality and beauty.

We find the attention to detail of our Italian artisans unmatched, the passion and pride unprecedented and felt in every piece. Our experience with this extraordinary talent began with a handcrafted ceramic dinnerware collection in 1983, and through the years we have created additional products in order to style the entire table, home, and garden. Although we have expanded upon the products we offer, everything we create is always inspired by Italy.
