Yes. Every piece is high-fired stoneware, kiln-fired to over 2,200°F until the clay fully vitrifies, then finished with food-safe glazes that are free of lead and cadmium. Our mugs, bowls, plates, and serveware are made for everyday use at the table.

Yes. Our garden pieces are made from the same high-fired, fully vitrified stoneware as our kitchenware, which makes them frost-proof and weather-resistant. They're built to live outdoors through real seasons, including freezing winters.

Yes — our stoneware is dishwasher-safe, and microwave-safe for everyday warming. To keep glazed surfaces looking their best over many years, hand-washing is the gentlest option, but regular dishwasher use is fine.

Every piece is wheel-thrown, hand-glazed, and kiln-fired by hand in our Salt Lake City, Utah studio. JJ Potts Studio has been a family-run pottery since 2001.

Factory ceramics are often fired between 1,800°F and 2,000°F, which can leave them porous and prone to chipping. Our stoneware is fired to over 2,200°F until it fully vitrifies — becoming dense, non-porous, and far more durable. And because every piece is thrown and glazed by hand, no two are exactly alike.

They're our two collections under the JJ Potts Studio umbrella. RooPottery is our garden line — ceramic mushrooms, gnomes, and hand-sculpted garden art. Jefferson Street is our kitchen & dining line — dinnerware, serveware, bakeware, and storage.
