The Village Potters Clay Company

Description

The Village Potters (TVP) are now a distributor of Laguna Clay Company clays. We will be expanding our Clay Company facility in the late summer/early fall of 2017 to accommodate a larger inventory; currently, the following clays are available at The Village Potters without pre-order (for small quantities).

Miller Clays:

Miller 900: Cone 6-10 A warm iron bearing stoneware. This clay body has marvelous throwing properties and fires tan in oxidation and a nice warm brown in reduction. Village Potter Sarah Wells Rolland has been using this clay body for over 15 years now. In Stock

Miller 850: Cone 6-10 A buff stoneware clay. This clay body has all the wonderful properties as the Miller 900 only less iron content making the clay a lighter stoneware. In Stock

B Mix Clays: We are thrilled to offer B Mix to our community. This white stoneware fires to a light grey in reduction. It has a firing range from 6-10 This is a popular clay for wood, salt and soda fire. We carry 3 different B Mix clays.

B Mix: Cone 6-10 A white stoneware clay body with super throwing properties. This clay body was created to stretch. Though it requires a bit extra attention than other stoneware clays this clay body is a dream for potters who love to throw and want a white canvas for the surface of their pots.

B Mix Wood: Cone 6-12 Like standard B Mix but with a broader firing range. Great for wood fire potters who have a lot of temperature variables in their firings. In stock

B Mix Grog: Cone 6-12. Also like standard B Mix, but with grog! In stock

Porcelain Clays: Porcelain clay is a clay every potter tries and some become completely enamored with. Its soft, plastic nature and it translucent white surface are captivating and worth the extra challenges say many potters. We are delighted to make Grolleg porcelain and Frost porcelain available to the potters of our region.

550 Grolleg Porcelain: Cone 6-10 Gorgeous white clay. The most popular Laguna Porcelain clay. Contains plasticizers to make this the finest translucent porcelain available for throwing, thin slab work and handbuilding. In Stock

570 Grolleg Porcelain: Cone 6-10 Gorgeous white clay. Similar to #550, but has a bit more tooth and can be fired a little hotter than #550. In Stock

Sculpture Clay:

Soldate 60: Cone 10 Varying particle sized clay ideal for sculptors In Stock

Everything Clay in one place, gallery,studios, classes, supplies, and a new resident potter;.Ruth Fischer Rutkowsky. Check out her work 10-5 daily. Excellent place to learn pottery making, throwing and hand building. New work in the gallery.
Wonderful studio, wonderful energy, every artist and instructor-all absolutely amazing! I have taken a couple of classes and intend to take more, highly recommend. Also a fantastic place to buy pottery, some truly beautiful pieces here for whatever your style might be. If you want to support local women artisans with a thoughtful approach to art and people-this is the place!
Stunning! The texture and shapes of the work here is inspired. I loved visiting this space and seeing all the art.
One of Asheville's great treasures, the Village Potters Clay Center is home to an incredible group of artisans and teachers eager to share their knowledge and love of pottery. Their gallery is filled with incredible ceramics; from a lovely array of beautiful and thoughtfully crafted dinnerware to awe-inspiring, large-scale decorative pieces - they can do it all! For those wanting to dive deeper into the world of clay, The Village Potters Learning Center provides a fully immersive learning environment allowing students to get hands-on, personalized instruction at every step from throwing at the wheel or hand-building with clay to the final kiln firing. I so loved my experience in the first class that I took there, that I just kept taking more for the next 7 months! Over that time I learned from 3 different teachers, all of who were incredible instructors, each taking the time to get familiar with each student, their skill level, and their goals and making sure to accommodate each student on every level. I plan to return for more classes ASAP! The community of instructors, students, and resident potters at the Village Potters creates a whole eco-system of joy and creation that is simply infectious. I cannot recommend enough making a visit to see their gorgeous creations in the gallery or better yet, to become a student and see how its done! You won't regret it :
Fantastic gallery of varied and beautifully crafted pottery and art. Plus, an equally amazing studio where anyone beginner to advanced can learn to play with clay!! Housed in the Riverview Station collection of art studios and galleries, this a wonderful place to visit and even more fabulous place to call your ceramics home and community!!
I went in and said that they need to find me the perfect coffee cup. But; well, I broke the perfect coffee cup last week so I didn't expect to find another to check all the boxes. The lady at the shop was so helpful in letting me examine the pottery and we volume tested a few until I settled on one of two very good candidates to replace my poor departed old friend. I think I am going to be very happy with my replacement. And if you read this at the pottery shop, when I got home I got a water bottle and stuck it inside the cup and it checked off that box as well. Thank-you so much for the time and outstanding service you gave me.
I was skeptical about distance learning but I had already tried the only 2 pottery studios near me. What I got was more interaction, more confidence to push my limits, and more practical knowledge than I could have expected, not to mention the priceless connection with my virtual classmates. I’m already signed up for my third 6 week session because my pots are better, bigger and beyond what I thought I could make!
Wonderful place! Bought a "Sheeple" there to go with my sculpture/clay piece from Ireland. Looks like a museum, well displayed, yet friendly and comfortable to browse and look. Also....even though it is a ceramic store, they have great paintings on the wall.
Amazing talent! Everyone was not only kind and welcoming, but this place is home to some very creative minds. It was nice to see such a diverse spread of artistic representation in one location. Must visit when in Ashville. Thanks to all...Cheers!
Extraordinary artists! Fabulous pieces! Awesome studio! Visit the center and see for yourself. Experience the artistry that makes this place great. You'll definitely want to purchase a piece to take home.
