Joy Tanner Pottery, located in Bakersville, NC, specializes in wood and soda fired functional pottery that beautifully combines intentional design with the unpredictable nature of the firing process. Each piece is a unique creation, showcasing illustrative surfaces and natural colors brought to life by the interaction of wood ash, flame, and soda vapor.
With a focus on creating smooth surfaces free of unintentional marks, Joy Tanner's process involves a delicate balance between control and chance, resulting in pottery that captures the essence of both craftsmanship and the elements at play in the kiln. Embracing the challenge of working with a wood and soda kiln, the gallery shop offers a range of handcrafted pieces that reflect the artist's dedication to both form and surface design.
