EARTHEN VESSELS POTTERY, Nancy WallI ENJOY CREATING CLASSIC VESSELS THAT BRING DIGNITY & BEAUTY TO THE DOMESTIC RITUALS OF DAILY LIVING. When not in my pottery studio, you'll find me hiking local trails - enjoying the forest and wild-flowers, watching birds, or collecting rocks and shells from nearby beaches.

Nancy is a founding member of the South Vancouver Island Potters Guild (110 members), and is grateful to participate in a small hands-on group that meets twice monthly-GARDEN CITY POTTERS. Marketing work at local art shows and annually in a nearby gallery. CARING FOR YOUR POTTERY: Functional items are safe in the dishwasher. As with all pottery, please avoid thermal shock (for instance, do not place a cold casserole from the fridge into a pre-heated oven). ![]() |
