About Obsidian Sand Pottery
This pottery is made of high-fire stoneware; it is durable, vibrant, and colorful and is functional or decorative. Our goal in designing this pottery was to complement the black coloring found in many modern kitchens and appliances. We wanted to create a black that was vibrant yet contained eye-catching accents. The name was inspired by a black sand beach with white ocean waves rolling up on it and gold coloring to reflect bright sunlight. This combination of colors is rich and vibrant, blending in well with any decor. The black coloring blends well on a black surface leaving the accent colors to be eye catching. When on a white or light surface, the white coloring in the pottery accents well, and the dark black color contrasts for a vibrant, colorful look; even on a wood surface, the rich, deep coloring looks good. Whether you intend to use or display this pottery, it adds color and elegance to any room. Cleans easily with water and soap if needed. Since we make this pottery by hand and also hand-apply the glazes, each piece will vary a little from what is pictured and be unique within itself.
Our Hi-Fire Stoneware Pottery
All of our stoneware pottery is hand made by us at our ceramic studio in Arizona, USA. We use four different glaze color combinations: Crimson Sunset, Stormy Skies, Obsidian Sand, and Canyon Meadows. We make all of the different shapes in all four colors. Sharon is our designer and creator of all four high-fire stoneware pottery lines. She has worked with ceramics in our studio since 2004, utilizing her artistic and creative personality to make quality, unique pieces of art. Each piece is signed with her initials on the bottom. Sharon spent several years in college studying ceramics and has taken many specialty classes. The process of creating a new pottery line and/or color combinations can take several months. Once she has the colors coming out as she likes, then it is perfecting the glaze application to get the exact look she is going for. Our family works together with the production of the high-fire stoneware pottery, servicing many retail stores with pottery as well as individual customers looking for a decorative and/or functional hand made piece of art made in the USA. We can also accommodate large orders of a specific piece for special occasions, weddings, conventions, etc. Please give us a call at (480) 983-1948 to discuss the specifics of your request. Feel free to have your buyer give us a call for retail store orders as well. For website sales, we have an inventory of each item in stock and can generally ship within 2 to 5 business days.
