Rainbow/JOY
This design is about a splash of JOY that sings and dances and celebrates life. These forms usually have an accompanying verse that is about JOY! The JOY mugs are a popular item and usually are in stock.
Frequently used verses: *JOY cometh in the morning! * Enter into the JOY! * Awake my soul and sing! * I’ve got the JOY, JOY, JOY, JOY down in my heart! * The JOY of the Lord is my strength! * You shall go out with JOY and be lead forth in peace! * Arise, SHINE!
White on White
Within this category you will see both a leaf/vine motif (sgraffito technique) as well as pieces simply decorated with pencil engraved scripture. You will also find whimsical character drawings that echo childs’ play and a simple delight in faith.
Frequently used verses: Make a joyful noise unto the Lord! * Sing and make music on heart! * Praise Him sun and moon and all ye shining stars! * Consider the Lilies of the field and how they grow.
African figures
With accompanying Shona language of Zimbabwe, the bright patterning and color of these women represent the joy of a culture familiar to me as a child. These women and children were originally designed to create a personal connection to my past and provide a means of support for AIDS relief in Zimbabwe. 20% of these proceeds are returned to an AIDS orphanage in Zimbabwe.
Little People
"“ Behold how good and pleasant it is when all God’s children dwell together in harmony.”
Small 6” plates with triplets of multiracial figures brighten a kitchen corner or a stove top -or select a platter with 4 or more figures in the theme of the above verse. Also available are small creamer pitchers with triplets of figures. Please call for further info on availability.
Frequently used verses: Love one another as I have loved you * A friend loveth at all times. * A sweet friendship refreshes the soul * Sing a new song! * Faith, Hope & Love * Walk with Faith * Live in Joy! * Awake my soul & SING!
Classic pastel
This is the original design of Pomegranate Clay Studio ~ softly melting swirls of lavender, aqua and buttery yellow, surrounded by a white rim and any chosen accompanying scripture. This may be offset with a white leaf/vine circle in the middle, or a preference for only the blues and lavender hues.
Within this category you will also see a dragonfly or two: a serene dragonfly sketched lightly through the lavender and aqua/blue colors with a hint of white – most popular in mugs and pitchers.
Accompanying verse: *Be still and know that I am God * He leadeth me beside still waters, he restoreth my soul.

How to order
Please keep in mind that each and every pot is somewhat unique; as I sit and throw new pots, the inventory changes and while I do recreate many, there is always a wide variety of new creativity on the palette. I am inviting you to select the basic form or item you would like, pick the pattern that most delights you from the catalogue listing, and then give me a call or write a short email and I will work with you until we together create your vision
For example… a pastor would like a chalice/paten set.. I can offer size/shape differentials according to what is shown in the catalogue, and then suggest different patterns and how they work with the form. I can also suggest scriptures or verse that will suit and match your creation. Do you have a very specific occasion that needs a very specific customized gift? Allow me to guide you and blend your desires with my hand on the wheel and spirit in the brush. Call me or email me a short note. I am delighted to work with you!

- Reference item in the catalogue that inspired your vision
- Form or function of item selected
- Approximate size~ small, med, large
- Pattern/Color of choice (You may combine patterns as seen in catalogue)
- Scripture or verse: Yes/No You may select your own or I am happy to guide you according to the function or intention of the piece.
