Pickenpaugh Pottery

Madison Mississippi

The Pickenpaughs throw pots from their own stonewear clay body containing native Mississippi clay. Their pots are wheel thrown and hand made. They have compounded their own glazes that are structured for beauty, permanence and food safety. Earthtone stoneware colors of green, blue yellow and white with accents of brown are hand mixed and applied to the wares. The pottery is fired to temperatures of 2400 degrees in the kiln the Pickenpaughs built for reduction firing. Each pot or flower is an original work that is hand made with Mississippi clay.
