Would that all teapots had ruffle tops, I can’t get enough of them. I love the contrast of the clear white glaze with the unglazed, highly textured ruffly lid. This piece was made in memory a teapot lost in the flooding at Southern Highland Craft Guild’s Biltmore location in September 2024.

The Gatherer 12.5”h $700
Porcelain and Polymer, 12.5 x 8 x 7”
My grandmothers had button boxes, as most grannies did at the time, and I loved to explore what was inside. I used molds made from vintage buttons to make the many clay and polymer bits that adorn this teapot, I imagine a bird such as this one might gather these small beauties for their nest.
Tiny Tea $125
Porcelain, 6 x 5.25 x 3.5
The Lover, the Saver of Small Things SOLD
Porcelain and steel pins, 12 x 8 x 7”
This petite pot, with its ruffly topper and scattered roses encircling the body, would be perfect on a bookcase or desktop. I’m loving this happy color.
This teapot conjures up memories of my grandmother’s dress shop. The numerous embellishments adorning the surface remind me of appliques, buttons and snippets of cloth to be found strewn about the seamstress’ workspace. It was shown in the exhibition“Too Much is Just Right,” Asheville Art Museum, 2023.
Into the Wild, Wild Wood $425
Porcelain and polymer 9 x 8 x 7”

This one was inspired by the first blooms of spring.
