We are a studio pottery specializing in functional
pottery located on the �quiet side� of Mount Desert
Island, Maine. We can be found on Kelleytown Road in
Seal Cove.
Our durable, vibrant glazes reflect the colors
of the Maine coast and sea. We glaze in blue, green,
yellow, black, white and sometimes red!
We have a
variety of special designs such as our very popular
cattail and dragon fly motif, Mount Desert Island fern
design, and plates with crab, sand dollar and starfish
designs in their centers.
Our work is oven proof and
microwave safe. We produce plates, bowls, platters,
pitchers, vases, and other specialty items. We produce
both wheel thrown and hand built work.
We enjoy a very
active summer with guests who live near or are visitors
to Acadia National Park. We enjoy many repeat customers
who have become our friends.
In addition to pottery, our
shop showcases fine crafts, jewelry, and includes a
gallery to display painting and photographic shows.

Lisbeth
Faulkner grew up in Rockport, Maine, attending a
one room school for the first few years of her
education, later moving to South Portland and
Windham, Maine. She graduated summa cum laude from
the University of Maine n Portland, where she
studied art and social work, and completed her
formal education with a Masters Degree from Boston
University. She collected pottery from the age of
seven and honed her pottery skills at Portland
Pottery and Silver Dew Pottery, Daufuskie Island,
S.C. Her love of nature, the sea and sailing brought
her together with Ed Davis to create the building,
gallery and pottery.
Ed Davis a
native Mt. Desert Islander and comes from a long
line of seafaring people who all lived within a few
miles of the pottery. His brothers still keep their
lobster boats in nearby Goose Cove. He decided early
on to break from family tradition and attended art
school. It was in art school that he first learned
to throw pots on the wheel but he was more
interested in painting so functional pottery was
forgotten and clay became only an occasional
sculpture medium.
Many years later he
renewed his interest in pottery and the
investigation of the process of working in clay.
After a short apprenticeship with Lancy and Emily
Burn of the Silver Dew Pottery on Dufuskie Island,
S.C. Ed rediscovered what he had forgotten. He draws
his inspiration from ancient Chinese and Korean
forms and also enjoys clay as a canvas on which he
can draw and paint.
He still continues
to paint oils and watercolors that are also
displayed in the pottery gallery.
