“John found his appreciation for pottery late into college. After graduating from Christopher Newport University he worked an apprenticeship with a potter in North Carolina. A few years later Acorn Pottery was born. Much of what John enjoys is the process and the relationships. The process of mud to clay, of clay to formation, and formation to final product. Relationally, we love connecting with our pottery customers. People love to have a favorite mug, bowl, dish, and we love to make it for them! It makes sharing those special drinks, and meals with loved ones a little more rich. Being a small business ourselves, we love to help other businesses brand themselves in a way that shows their care for their customer and the community by sourcing high quality, local, products, and that is exactly what our logo hand thrown mugs do.”
