That cup turn is so satisfying we just had to share this with you. These cups were made by the late potter Michael Simon, with each cup remaining an individual by its own unique bird design.
This collection can be found under the Exhibition Archives, at schallergallery.com.

Have you seen our selection of Andrew Martin work?
We showcased Andrew Martin in the show 'REFIND: Martin & McGowan' on March 27th. Andrew Martin had shown throughout the country and taught at places from Anderson Ranch in Colorado to Penland in North Carolina. His inspirations came from Chinese, Japanese and Middle Eastern ceramics. He was the author of a definitive book on mold making for ceramic artists. He passed away in 2024, but his legacy lives on.
Head to schallergallery.com/pages/refind to view his work.

REFIND: Cochrane & Beasecker will be going live this Friday with work by Peter Beasecker and Bruce Cochrane.
Peter Beasecker was born in Toledo, Ohio and received a BS degree from Miami University and his MFA from Alfred University. He has been recognized for many years as a maker of quiet, elegant porcelain pots reflecting a studied and haptic sensibility. Beasecker’s recent work has concentrated on ‘carriers’, dark stoneware vessels holding numerous porcelain cups or bowls. He also continues his porcelain work making simple plates, bowls, and vases.
Bruce Cochrane is an internationally acclaimed ceramic artist and recently retired Professor Emeritus of Ceramics at Sheridan College. During his 30 plus years of teaching at Sheridan he was instrumental in developing the Ceramic Program’s reputation as one of the best in Canada. He is himself one of Canada’s preeminent ceramic artists with work featured in public and private collections around the world.
Going live at 2 PM EST this Friday.

There are four Mark Pharis pieces available on our 'All Refind Works' page.
"My introduction to ceramics began in the fall of 1967 at the University of Minnesota. As I began my education at the University, I found my way into several art classes and eventually the clay studio. I had been encouraged by my best friend’s parents to study with Warren MacKenzie, which I eventually did. It was a transformational experience. I studied with a cohort of talented and committed undergraduate students at the University until 1971. In the summer of 1973 I set up a pottery studio in a rural area outside of Houston, MN and produced work in that studio until 1989. In 1985 I joined the Department of Art at the University of Minnesota as a faculty member. I served as the chair of the department from 1998 to 2004 and as Associate Dean in CLA from 2005-2008.
Nearly all of my early work was functional, wheel thrown and "once fired" in a wood and oil fired kiln. Since 1992 I have worked exclusively in earthenware. Today, my work is hand built from forms cut from slabs using two-dimensional paper patterns. The process owes much to the traditions of pattern making found in sewing and sheet metal work. I think about and use geometry while making these pieces. However, it is casual, intuitive and not derived from serious math." —Mark Pharis

Later this week, we have a brand new collection making it's debut.
The Diane & Marc Grainer Collection will be making it's way to our Refind selections. 'REFIND: Patrons of Craft - Part One' will be launching this Friday at 2 PM EST with an unforgettable assortment of prolific makers throughout clay history, from all over the globe.
When Marc Grainer started traveling frequently to London for work, these trips evolved into opportunities to acquire art. His early interest centered on ceramics - a field that, at the time, had not yet achieved the elevated status it enjoys today. In fact, he recalls casually transporting many of his first purchases home in his carry-on luggage.
Britain proved especially fertile ground: there were relatively few serious collectors, and much of the audience for studio pottery still favored a conservative style shaped by the legacy of Bernard Leach and his followers. Grainer was among a small group of Americans perceptive enough to recognize that a shift was underway in British ceramics. Before long, both Marc and Diane Grainer realized their involvement had grown far beyond a casual interest - and that their curiosity extended well past British ceramics alone. As their engagement deepened, they stepped into active roles within the American craft world, contributing to its institutional framework. In Washington, DC, they took on leadership positions with the James Renwick Alliance, while also supporting major organizations such as the Museum of Arts and Design in New York and the American Craft Council. Their commitment culminated in a significant act of philanthropy in 2010, when they donated an important group of British ceramic works to the Mint Museum of Art. In many ways, the Grainers exemplify a distinct wave of collectors - individuals whose passion not only drove them to acquire works, but also to shape and strengthen the very institutions that support the craft field.
Set a reminder for this Friday! ⏰
