MudWorks Pottery is designed and created in the small town of Effort, Pennsylvania. From the throwing on the wheel to the carving and painting, every step is done by hand. The charming, and sometimes whimsical, designs are food, oven (with preheating), microwave, and dishwasher safe, making them both fun and functional. Most motifs are available in a variety of configurations, including plates, trays, mugs, garlic pots, etc. As with most artisan wares, slight variations in size, color, and pattern should be anticipated.
