The Vermont Pottery & Weaving Studio

Robert & his wife, Christine, live on a former dairy farm, in one of the mountain valleys that surround Bristol, Vermont.   The barn serves as his studio & showroom and the 19th century farmhouse their home.

Most of Robert’s Stoneware & Porcelain pottery is Wood-Fired in a Noborigama kiln.  A Salt Glazed atmosphere is achieved in the second chamber of this Japanese style kiln.

The Pit Fired & Raku pottery is fired in special kilns designed for these unique effects.  Robert throws each piece of pottery individually on a potter’s wheel.

Visit the Vermont Pottery Studio or shop in our on-line Gallery.

The pottery is open most days from 10 am – 5 pm
