Paige throwing a pot on the wheel

From the studio

Hi, I’m Paige.

Sleeping Bear started at a secondhand wheel and a lot of wobbly first bowls. Now every piece is thrown, trimmed, carved and glazed by hand in my small studio — made to be used every day and loved for a long time.

Thrown by hand

Every piece is wheel-thrown, trimmed and glazed by one person — no molds, no factories.

Made for everyday

Food-safe, lead-free stoneware fired to cone 6. Built to be used and loved daily.

Wrapped with care

Double-boxed and padded like it’s going to my own grandma. Breakage is on me.

Custom work

Something made just for you

Dinnerware sets, wedding gifts, a mug with your dog’s face carved in — tell me what you’re dreaming of and we’ll make it together.
