Hawksbill Pottery

Clay

Hawksbill Pottery produces a unique collection of handcrafted stoneware. Some pieces are thrown on a potter’s wheel while others are hand built with slabs and extruded pieces. Each piece is embossed with original designs and hand painted with lead free studio mixed glazes.  Our glazing technique is similar to a batik process. A variety of masking materials are used between layers of glaze to create colorful designs and patterns.  All pieces are ovenproof, dishwasher and microwave safe. Unlike earthenware, stoneware has been fired to a very high temperature, vitrifying the clay to create a strong and durable finished product.  Each piece is painted free hand with a brush, giving spontaneous life to each piece. We believe this direct process infuses the object with human energy. If cared for properly, your piece should last a lifetime and be enjoyed by generations to come.

Kirk Ceramics

Clay

The founder of Kirk Ceramics, Roger Kirk, makes functional and decorative ceramics in his studio in Washington, D.C.  He also teaches high school and adult ceramics classes in Montgomery County, MD. 

Roger has been making ceramics since 2009, when he took his first ceramics class at UCLA.  Many failed and successful pots later, he sells his work at markets and through his website.

Roger’s style is inspired by traditional English and Japanese pottery, but with a contemporary twist.  He hopes the handmade feel, functionality, and professional finish of his ceramics will help to make people’s homes happier places to live.

Jewelry

Born the oldest of five into a modest family, I learned early on that to have the material things I fancied I would need to make them myself. I soon became adept at seeing a piece of clothing or an accessory and reproducing it using the materials at hand. This ability to thrift and fabricate came in useful in my early career where I not only wrote and acted but designed sets and costumes for the theatre. Later, on a whim, I took a workshop in metalsmithing, and my love of sterling silver was born.


In learning to manipulate hot metal; bending and diminishing, piercing, adding granulation, fusing, and soldering, I soon realized my uncanny talent at reproduction had found an artistic home. I love to see something that piques my interest and then figure out, first, how it is made and second, how to make it my own using mixed metals and unusual components like glass, leather, and metal clay. Often working in a series or with a particular design element, each of my creations is one of a kind. My customers enjoy choosing from the different looks that spring from the same design family. Together in our studio my husband and I produce sterling silver jewelry with pearl, gemstone, 14K gold, and bronze accents.

I am truly inspired by other jewelers, art deco architecture, and kinetic sculpture.

The Weavery

Fiber/Textiles

I weave rugs in a range of designs that evolve to reflect the changing tastes and moods of our society.   I adapt simple weave structures to become devices for showcasing color, enlarging the scale and using nature for color inspiration.  Because my rugs are often ordered on a custom basis, I also work with my customers’ palettes as well.  The interplay of design, color, and woven structure gives each rug its integrity and individuality.

I am moving in a direction of greater sophistication in weave structure.  Twills, Swedish Ripsmatta, and multi-harness block designs are finding their way into my repertoire.  These offer more depth, texture, and intrigue without becoming too complex visually for a large item that will be integrated into a unique interior space. 

Materials include cotton, wool, linen, and strips of cotton and wool fabric recycled from industry wastage when possible.
