Whether you’re a longtime admirer of pottery or new to the world of ceramics, his work invites you to experience a deep connection with handmade art.

Garold’s pottery isn’t just about producing functional home goods — it’s about embracing the flexibility and personality of clay. From the moment he sits at the potter’s wheel, he allows the clay to guide the creation process, bringing to life the uniqueness to each item.

The Man Behind the Craft – Garold Amsberry

Garold Amsberry’s love for pottery began in high school, and that early interest blossomed into a lifelong dedication to master the craft.

After working at production pottery studio in Annapolis, he gained valuable experience, which allowed him to develop his own unique style. Over the years, he has refined his techniques, creating pottery that blends form, function, and beauty.

His work is not only crafted by hand but also glazed using mixtures he creates in his studio. Each piece is fired at an intense 2200 degrees, ensuring both durability and beauty. The glazing process adds unique touches to every item, reflecting both his artistic vision and a deep appreciation for the natural world found here in Western North Carolina.

No two pieces are exactly alike, and this element of unpredictability is part of what makes pottery so special to him. Each creation has its own story, with subtle differences that set it apart, making every item truly one-of-a-kind.
