Take home a special piece of the village with the new signature pottery series. Each redware piece is a replica of one on exhibit in a village building, and is individually wheel-thrown, hand-glazed and hand-inscribed with the name of the building it represents. A limited quantity of these first pieces is now available at the village or by special order, with additional pieces to follow. Don’t miss your chance to take home the whole line of village-made pottery. Our redware replicas all are food safe—the glazes contain no lead.
