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.

Christmas Tree Luminary - Warm Winters

$83.00

This luminary was thrown on the wheel as an enclosed form. Crisp marks were then carved vertically into the surface before cutting through in select places to create slashes of light. The porcelain clay body provides a bright base for the warm cream glaze, a perfect combination to brighten your winter nights.
