We had sex in this room. 

Amuse your friends and horrify your family by hanging this classic anywhere in your house. You can go for the expected and hang it in the guest bedroom or my favorite, hang it in the kitchen, the den, the foyer, or anywhere else you may have christened with sexual joy at some point.

Another terrific option is to give it as a hostess gift. You know, just discreetly leave it somewhere in your host's home and see if they ever fess up to having found it. Visiting your parents or grown children? Leave it in the guest room as a thank you gift when you depart. There are so many options to have wicked good fun with it.

Each wall tile is handmade using a high fire white stoneware on my pottery wheel then hand carved using the sgraffito method before being glazed and fired. It's all a lot more involved than that, but this is sort of the gist of it. Each one is completely free-hand carved, no stamps, no sketching, no planning. I just dig in and go.

The back of the tile is curved inward allowing it to be easily hung on a simple nail or screw. It looks like it is floating on the wall creating an interesting level of dimension.

Measures approximately 5" diameter but honestly, that is a guess because I am typing this at home in my pajamas and can't read my own hand written notes on the dimensions. 

As always, all orders in the continental US are shipped at a flat rate of $5 because you deserve it! So go ahead and shop to your heart's content. It's only going to be $5.

Sometimes all you need is a little dish. Maybe you're serving dinner and want people to salt the meal themselves with special salt. Perhaps you just want a delicious chocolate truffle to feel extra special when you're setting the mood for some self pampering. Even if you're just looking for a little spot to put your ring while you're doing the dishes, a little something is all you need.

The ever so functional tiny dishes will serve all those purposes and probably a few more you haven't even thought of yet. The small ceramic trinket dishes also make a lovely gift for the tea lover in your life. Imagine gifting these at each place setting of party with a tasty handmade chocolate.

Each handmade set of 4 is made using my signature Canvas glaze.  

Every dish measures approximately 2" x 2" and is 5/8" deep.

Your set of 4 tiny dishes will come neatly wrapped in grey tissue and tied with our signature black and white baker's twine. A care card is included.

Each handmade set of 4 tiny dishes is glazed in the very limited edition serendipitous Aquamarine glaze. I say serendipitous because it is made by artfully combining all our glaze samples when we test dozens of glazes at a time. My wonderful assistant Mackenzie mixes small batches of glaze adding incremental amounts of stains and colorants. We brush a small tile with each version and fire them in the kiln. Copious notes are required to make sure we know which version we like best when the firing is complete. This serendipitous Aquamarine is the result of dozens of glaze tests all mixed together in the hopes that it would be something attractive.

Because of the limited edition glaze which cannot be exactly reproduced, these are available in very limited quantities and when they're gone, that's it.

This dish has turned out to be far more versatile than expected. We use it for individual servings of veggies and dip, sushi, condiments and serving small portions. It's perfect for home, entertaining and restaurant use.

Handmade using high fire white stoneware.

Measures approximately 5" x 8.5"

The center of the divided dish is stamped using an antique Indian batik stamp that I acquired over 20 years ago. Each dish is completely handmade and unique. You may not receive the exact piece pictured here but one like it with its own one of a kind character.

Microwave and dishwasher safe, though, I do recommend hand washing since things bang around quite a bit in the dishwasher. If you choose to use the dishwasher anyway, your cup will last much longer if you're careful to place it where it won't vibrate or bang against other dishes.

Each piece of pottery is carefully wrapped and packed to ensure safe delivery.

I don’t know if you loved Mad Men as much as I did, but in spite of the horrific mysogyny and general mayhem in the office, there is something so darn delightful about a martini in the evening. While my happy hour days have been traded in for Birkenstocks and clay, I still have a hankering for an end of week extra dry martini with snacks and friends. That’s the inspiration for the Martini Greta platter. 

Use your handmade, hand carved one of a kind platter to serve delicious charcuterie, fruit or hors d’oeuvres. It’s also just right for a delicious pile of grilled asparagus wrapped with prosciutto. 

Can you tell I like to eat? 

Measures approximately 8"wide and 13.5” long. 

The detailed image is freehand carved using the sgraffito technique which means it is truly one of a kind.

While it is microwave safe, I’m going to be extremely impressed if you find a microwave large enough to accommodate it.

The platter is dishwasher safe. Due to the one of a kind, handmade nature of pottery, I always recommend hand washing for longevity so it isn’t banging around in the dishwasher.

Let go of my ears! I know what I'm doing.

A good friend told me the story of his grandmother saying this to his grandfather. As a little kid he took it to mean she could do it without his mansplaining. Once he was old enough to realize the source of the saying he said he spent a couple minutes disturbed by it before thinking to himself, "Go Grandma!"

To me, it goes right along with that control issue. I've got this. Trust me. I know what I'm doing.
