| Pottery
by Rose Fennell Cheverly,
MD Potter Rose Fennell works out of her pottery studio in
the quiet suburban comfort of Cheverly, MD. In addition to having
her own place to create, she is a member of the Langley Park Potters,
a community studio in Montgomery County, Maryland. She is dedicated
to creating handcrafted pottery pieces that are unique and of
high quality, never using molds or jigs. Almost all work is thrown
on the wheel, although some pieces are hand-built using slap or
pinch methods. Rose specializes in functional pottery such as
bowls, plates, mugs and other types of dinnerware, but certainly
appreciates the joy that comes from creating one-of-a-kind pieces.
She also enjoys adding just a dash of whimsy in most things she
creates, such as the “Pick-It” toothpick holders or
the “personalized” dog and cat food dishes. Rose hopes
that you enjoy owning and using these handmade pieces as much
as she enjoys creating them. |
