Meet the Maker
Hi, I’m Paula Bowers! I’ve been creating pottery for over 12 years, drawing inspiration from the rich history of South Carolina ceramics, the natural beauty of our family farm, and the music that moves me.
My work is all about joy—whimsical, functional pieces designed to be used and loved every day, yet crafted with the care and quality to last a lifetime.
How it’s Made
This grinning face mug is handcrafted from sturdy slabs of stoneware clay. The features—arched brows, sculpted cheeks, and that mischievous smile—are all carefully shaped by hand, giving each mug a one-of-a-kind personality. The textured handle is attached and smoothed for comfort and durability. After drying completely, it’s bisque fired, glazed with earthy tones to highlight every expression, and then glaze fired to over 2300°F.
Durable, dishwasher and microwave safe—because your mug should work as hard as your coffee does!
