Sharing with Diane

... & "The Science Guy"

 I had the pleasure of meeting Diane Rehm in Spring of 2018. I was able to present her a bowl that I made just for her. 

Lettering on the piece said,​
​"Please answer the question. 
-  D.R." 

... & "The Science Guy"

... & "The Science Guy"

More recently, I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Nye ("The Science Guy") ...a very nice & most interesting gentleman.

He accepted one of my finer pieces as a personal gift and seemed most genuinely appreciative. ​A memory I'll treasure...

At The Beautiful Bowl, we are proud to be able to share with our community. Here, we welcomed an Afghan couple new to San Antonio with a small, but heartfelt gift.

Our Design Philosophy

Our design philosophy is centered around simplicity and functionality. We believe that pottery should not only be beautiful, but also practical for everyday use. Our designs are inspired by nature and the minimalist aesthetic of Japanese pottery.

i count this as a "Like"

My Bowl / The Bowl

My son, Adam, gave some of my pottery to a friend of his.

Here is a message he got from Holly: 

'I would like to thank you once again for the beautiful pottery. 

I want you to know that one of the bowls he made is now "My bowl" as in "The Bowl" as in... if it goes in a bowl, I'm eating it out of that bowl. 

I've been known to choose my lunch based on if it can be eaten in a bowl so I can use The/My bowl.

It's become a daily fixture of pleasure in my life. The color, the texture, the weight of it. The gratitude I feel when I use it.  

So, would you please relay that to Dudley for me?' 

Small Gifts

A good friend does a favor for you,

A worker goes the extra mile,

Can you express your thanks to them

With more than just a smile ?

Have some small gifts in your car...

Just a few bags,

of Harris' ceramic works

(on which he's sure to brag).

Give out a bowl should the occasion arise.

I promise you...folks will love the surprise.
