Books. Pots. Pics. All by Anne E. Terpstra
Website title Pottery Shop March2025.png

Chicago potter inspired by mid-century forms and Chicago's architectural history.

Anne E. Terpstra is a Chicago potter who throws functional and decorative work for the home and garden. She’s always been drawn to mid-century modern design, and this is reflected in the clean lines of many of her forms. She also loves the contrast of glaze against clay body and explores this through a variety of taped lines that let the fired clay play against the surrounding glaze. Many of her designs are inspired by stained glass from Chicago’s own Prairie style, along with art deco and mid-century patterns.

Butter Bell

Butter Bell

$75.00

The butter bell is having a renaissance, and these bells give the French-inspired crock a midcentury facelift. Thrown as two pieces, the butter crock nests inside the larger container for water. The lid of the butter section has also been thrown with a bare clay ring which acts as a foot so the crock can be used as a serving dish when inverted.
