Fox Pass Pottery show room on a rare, snowy, day for Arkansas
|
Jim and Barbara Larkin built Fox Pass Pottery in 1973. Jims work is made on the potters wheel and Barbaras is handbuilt. Jim and Barbara often work together on thrown and carved pieces. They mix their clay from several different clays and minerals to make an attractive and durable stoneware. They also mix their own glazes, which are formulated for specific colors and surface qualities. After glazing, the pottery is fired in either a gas or woodfired kiln to 2350 degrees F. The finished pieces are durable and chip resistant, dishwasher safe, and safe to use in the oven or microwave. Jim and Barbara invite you to visit Fox Pass Pottery and observe the activity in the studio, talk with the potters, and browse in the show room. |
