We offer a wide selection of unique, handcrafted pottery made by master potter Tom Jones from the finest quality ceramic clays. Tom Jones grew up in Fairhope, Alabama and became interested in pottery in high school when he studied under master potter Edith Harwell. After graduating he was offered a scholarship from Mississippi College in Clinton, Mississippi. Later he returned to Fairhope where he
taught pottery and folk dancing at his alma mater, the Marietta Johnson School of Organic Education. In 1976, Tom helped Ralph Jennings start A & D Pottery on the site of the current pottery. Then in 1980, Tom and his wife Pam opened their first shop in Daphne, Alabama. The pottery was manufactured from their home until more space was needed. In 1983, Tom moved all of his equipment and tools to the site of the present location of the pottery at Clay City. After years of selling to shops and galleries, throughout the region, Tom's pottery is now exclusively available in his shop here.
