Product of the Day!

Artist: Leah Nobilette Location: Portland About:

Leah Nobilette received a BFA in ceramics from Western State College of Colorado in the spring of 2001. In 2004, simplifying her college thesis of textured raku works, Leah developed her extremely popular line of hand-made spiked bowls and vases.

This unique product line is not just functional, but uniquely decorative and pleasingly tactile. The fragile-looking spiky exteriors are surprisingly sturdy and dishwasher safe, and the bowls have brightly colored interiors that are food safe.

Leah also makes a colorful line of everyday bowls and cups with smooth exteriors. Like her spiked pieces, the pieces of Leah’s everyday line are constructed from white earthenware that Leah throws by hand on a kick wheel.

Leah lives in Portland, Oregon with her soon to be husband Shawn. *We just got more of Leah's work in the store!! This ridiculously popular line is so wonderful with its bold colors and tactile exterior. And yes, you can feel those spikes! A customer stated once that "it hurts to touch these, but I can't not touch them!". Come check them out!

Product of the Day!

Artist: Johnathan Langston Location: Portland, Oregon About: Jonathan Langston is an alumni of the Oregon College of Art and Craft. His studio is located at the Ford Building in SE Portland. Jonathan begins with a 2D design on paper. Each form is first hand-thrown. A mold is then taken of the original to be used for slip casting, allowing Jonathan to work with duplicates. This process provides opportunity to alter each piece individually while staying true to the original form. The vessels become uniformly distinct. *Jonathan came in earlier this week and brought a new set of bottles! Great pewter color and so shiny you can see me taking a picture of them right in the middle! So pretty!
