Special Pieces

At Porches Pottery, we create a breathtaking array of unique designs on a broad variety of different shapes - often they are one of a kind, rarely or never repeated. This type of diversity is difficult to capture in a website, but to bring a little of this variety to life online we have created our Special Pieces Collection.
