Thanks!

Using authentic handmade functional pottery has always been a joy for many folks in all walks of life. If buying a gift for yourself or a loved one you miss, handmade is a great way to introduce art back into everyday life. From the banker to the night shift factory worker, all should be able to enjoy the art and form of a nice handmade coffee or beer mug. Authentic functional pottery that is used

every day might be banged up a bit, mug rim chipped , or have a sense of comfort and meaning you might be attached to. Authentic functional forms can also be a work of art, where the artist can show off a bit with design, color, texture, and many other ways on everyday household items. Everyday useful forms to brighten and spice up the days of routine to the point where art is part of the life style. Using a handmade shave bowl and brush for a morning shave or drinking juice from a handmade pottery cup far out weights anything mass produced by the millions. Each wobble of a rim, a fingerprint left in the glaze, or a bottom that might sit a bit unlevel all says it was touched a bit differently with each one and even in a set no two are the same. I will try my best on my days off from the factory to create work and help you find that special gift for your family, yourself, or a friend you miss. If there are any questions about the work or the process feel free to post a message or comment. Al Wayman

*Yawns and wakes up and rubs his eyes. Stretches and makes a hot coffee* Well, it's about that time of year to start creating pots again for the selling season. It sure has been a few nice months off researching, reading, and working on getting the kiln built. I have a long way to go but I plan to continue on.

I look forward to seeing you this season.

Not a mass-produced import. Not a factory replica. Something made by my hands, in my studio, next to the Tuscarora Creek in Laceyville, Pennsylvania. Each piece is one of a kind. Each one is worth keeping.
