ABOUT THE POTTERY

 

Each urn is a one-of-a-kind, museum quality, heirloom collectable original featuring the proprietary 14-step process mastered by the artist over 36 years.  The process remains unduplicated anywhere in the world.  Leaves, grapes and nuts appear dried, blown and nestled into her Clay Art.  The work is wheel thrown with hand built additions in kiln fired clay from real white, red, gambrel and burr oak, silver and Norway maple, black walnut, elm, catnip, ginkgo, pine, grape leaves and vines.  An average human urn requires over 50,000 hand-strokes and multiple kiln firings over two to four months to complete.  The urns include a personal inscription on the bottom and your personal message inside the lid.  Each design is copyrighted and signed by the artist. 

 

TO PURCHASE A CLAY ART CREMATION URN

 

A limited number of urns of various designs are kept on hand for short notice delivery.  If you are interested in obtaining an urn off-the-shelf please contact the artist.  Photos will be emailed to you for your consideration.

 

To design a custom urn to your specifications, a Design Consultation is held with the client.  Each urn is then individually created to the specifications of the client, including style, size, color, type of leaf and inscription (if applicable).  The consultation can be done in person or via telephone.  After the initial conversation, she takes a few days to come up with the final design.  Designs come to her in her dreams.  There is a second consultation for final approval.  Delivery can be expected in about 2 to 4 months after you have chosen the Forever Homeä urn.   Thank you for visiting my web site.  I would be honored to assist you.

TESTIMONIALS

Names Withheld for Respect

 

I Flew from Ohio and rented a car to have a personal consultation.  I am so happy to have found an artist able to create an absolutely wonderful urn for my husband. Thank you so much for your vision for his urn. It reflects his love of nature perfectly.

 

I can’t begin to tell you how many friends have appreciated the urn you created, and the gorgeous centerpiece bowl.

 

I have received the urn and love it.  I have it in a place of honor.

 

I was totally amazed at the uniqueness and beauty of my sister’s urn when it arrived.  She saw the urn on your web site and insisted we contact you immediately to see if it was available. She passed peacefully 2 hours after seeing her new home. Thank you for shipping it immediately. The cremation urn you made will be a meaningful resting place for my dog’s ashes.

 

I just can't thank you enough for doing this for us.  I've not wanted to "settle" for anything ordinary because she wasn't -- I just knew I'd know what was perfect when I found it. 

 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing this for us and for her. Your pottery is beautiful.  I am interested in a cremation urn.  My husband died recently and I want to purchase a container to hold his ashes that would do justice to him.  He was a unique man and traditional urns are just not making it for me.  Someone once told me that there is no such thing as a coincidence.  I believe I was supposed to come upon your web page.  Thank you for being there.  My husband will have a beautiful urn.  He would approve.  It was very nice talking with you tonight.  I appreciate you taking time with me.  The urn is a perfect tribute to my husband.

 

My Mom cried when she received the beautiful urn you made for our Dad.  It is totally unique and beautiful and so fitting for a man who loved the out of doors and spent so much time in his woods.  Thank you so much for doing this for our family.  We will treasure it always.

 

From the Executor of an estate: My client has collected your White Oak Leaf pottery for years.  He passed last month and was cremated.  He has directed me to order 3 of your signature white oak urns in blue for his ashes, one for each of his daughters who are sharing his extensive collection.

 

I have been waiting for 4 years to find the perfect small remembrance urn for my wonderful, quirky husband.  I have scattered most of him in his favorite places and the urn you created for the little bit remaining of his ashes was perfect.    The Burr Oak Leaf and Bark design fit his personality perfectly.  It is just the right size for my bed stand.

 

Our dogs always slept with us.  Now they still do, but on the night table, in the urns you created for each of them.  The cattails and dragonflies and the maple leaves are perfect.  Thank you so much for understanding our loss and helping to make it a bit easier.  Just wanted to say thanks again for all you have done.  I will make it short and sweet or else I will be crying in no time.

 

The cremation you made will be a meaningful place for my dog’s ashes.

 

I have been wanting to send you photos of the wonderful cat urn you made.  She was a treasured and well cared for cat and now she is resting in a place of honor in our living room.  I can look at the beautiful piece of art and smile, knowing that she would love it because she loved boxes and catnip.  We will always cherish this and be reminded of your kindness.
