Gary Lee, owner and resident potter at Rising Sun Pottery invites you to
stop by and see the variety of beautiful and original pieces created by
both
Gary and members of Rising Sun Clay Guild. The Gallery is a comfortable and causal atmosphere where you can browse the collection of stoneware creations and talk directly with the potters whose work is on display. Here you can see and purchase stoneware and folk art that harkens back to the early days of pottery making in the Catawba Valleyr egion of North Carolina. You will find wheel turned pots, hand build pots and folk art pieces, including roosters and face jugs. All work will be food safe, microwave safe, dishwasher safe and all glazes are lead free. Only our Raku fired work is unsafe for food or water usage. Our utilitarian pieces are designed to be taken home, used in the kitchen and with loving care will last for generations to come. The Gallery adjoins a working studio so you're likely to catch Gary, his studio assistant, students or a Clay Guild member busy turning pots. It's a fun and interesting place to visit where you can not only view and purchase beautiful works of stoneware and folk art but you can also gain an appreciation for how the piece was made and talk to the artist who made it. This adds an extra dimension of uniqueness to the pieces as both gifts and works that you'll enjoy and cherish in your home.
