Handmade in small batches
Pottery for slow mornings & long suppers

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.
Read the storyThrown 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.
