Cathey Chet’s Ceramics: A Blend of Art and Utility

Are you a lover of unique, handcrafted pottery that blends artistry with everyday practicality? Look no further. Cathey Chet, a dedicated potter since 2008, has been transforming simple clay into extraordinary pieces of art.

By day, Cathey is a passionate school teacher, but as the sun sets, she dives into the wonderful world of pottery in Muddy Llama studio.

About her studio name “Muddy Llama”, Cathey says, “We have two llamas, Moon Shadow and Eclipse. They are each 6 years old and are about as friendly as they come. When given opportunity they love to join me in the studio and check out what I’m doing!”

Cathey creates practicable stoneware that is as functional as it is beautiful. Cathy says, “I create and sell handmade utilitarian stoneware that can be used in your home daily.”

Cathey’s creations are deeply rooted in the natural world, drawing inspiration from the serene forests and majestic mountains that cradle her home in Zirconia NC. This connection to nature is evident in her choice of earth-tone colors and natural forms, evoking a sense of calm and grounding in every piece.

Her journey in pottery has been influenced by the rich pottery traditions here in Western North Carolina as well the foothills, further enriched by her family’s regular pilgrimages to Seagrove, NC, a renowned center for ceramic creativity.
