Books. Pots. Pics. All by Anne E. Terpstra

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.

These ceramic holiday trees were thrown on the wheel and then a slip was applied to the dark stoneware surface, allowing an organic texture to be created as it spun. Each tree is unique but unified by the melting blue and white glaze that allows the deep brown clay to break through the surface. Both flowing and textural, these trees are a great fit for anyone seeking a bit of Scandinavian drama for their holiday table or winter decor. These trees also pair nicely with the Rustic White versions.
