Designing forms with an eye towards understated forms and durability in daily use, Rachel Greens' work is just as thoughtful as it is timeless.
I began throwing pottery while living in a small mountain town in Southwestern Colorado. I quickly became fascinated by the humbling challenge of shaping clay. Each session at the wheel brought new skills and a sense of wonder for everything yet to come. I am grateful to still feel that aspirational curiosity in my craft.
I deeply enjoy my time at the wheel crafting small-batch functional tableware. I design my forms with an eye towards durability in daily use and balance in weight and proportion to please both the eye and hand.
I develop custom glazes through incremental testing and experimentation, seeking out muted, organic tones that evoke memories of coastlines, hand died fabrics, or tumbled river stones. My custom glazes are both durable and so pleasing to the touch. All works are microwave and dishwasher safe.
I am deeply grateful to all who have supported me in this venture. Thank you for your interest in my work!
