Here in GA as well. I had the luck to meet Mr Metter in the mountains before he was “discovered” and placed in the Smithsonian.

Interesting to see an art unchanged after who knows how many thousand years.

Proud owner of many pieces of Seagrove and Catawba Valley pottery. I love our face jugs. We even commissioned one of the Seagrove potters to produce table settings for our wedding registry, as opposed to China from the department store.

A trip to Seagrove is a treat in more than one way. My favorite potter in the area has the most beautiful red glazes.

The little town of Seagrove, NC is a wonderful day trip for anyone to take, we have enjoyed going there for years, it has maybe 1 stop light.. 1 or 2 restaurants, a gas station and about 50 pottery studios.
