Care of Crutchfield Pottery
Thank you for considering our work. We take pride in crafting pottery that stands the test of time.
Durability and Longevity
Some of the pieces we own have been in use for more than 30 years. With proper care, your Crutchfield Pottery will remain a cherished part of your home for many years to come.
Safe for Everyday Use
All our pottery is designed for regular use. Each piece is lead-free and safe to use in the dishwasher and microwave.
Temperature Guidelines
Our pieces can be refrigerated or warmed in the oven. We recommend avoiding temperature shock, such as transferring pottery directly from the refrigerator to a hot oven. For best results, allow pieces to reach room temperature before baking.
All of our glazes are carefully crafted in our studio, ensuring that every piece we create is truly one-of-a-kind. Because each glaze is mixed and applied by hand, you can expect individual variations in color and finish, making every item unique and full of character. These differences are a natural part of the handmade process and add to the charm and authenticity of our pottery.

In 1980, Barry embarked on a new journey with his wife Terri and their two daughters. Together, they founded Crutchfield Pottery. By traveling to art shows nationwide, they established a strong reputation for their studio.
