Note: This page reflects the finest of the historical reproduction and Italian Maiolica pieces made from 2003-2017. We are no longer producing pottery.

This Vessel was custom made for St Theresa's Catholic School in Sugar Land Texas USA,and features their mascot, a Griffin, on one side, and Athena on the other.

It was commissioned by Dr. Dean Cassella, who is a Classical Studies professor there. Dr. Cassella was kind enough to translate my name into ancient Greek so that I could sign the body of the piece, much as the ancient Greek potters did, in a vertical line down the side. It says, "Youlia egrapse ka poiese me" or, Julia drew and made me.

It stands 28 inches tall and is 17 inches in diameter.

This was made for a customer in Hong Kong, as part of a first ever Biblical museum. It is 19 inches tall and the inside is coated with beeswax, making it water tight. This would have been used to sell oil; a small dipping amphora sat inside the funnel-shaped spout.
