We asked four or five where they got their clay, and none said they still dug their own locally. Of course, had we visited different potters, the answer might have been the opposite. Of the 109 potters in the area, how many do you know that still dig their own local clay? <br /><br />Cheers!<br /><br />HarryHarry Gillelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699675008716378867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5054394971471399775.post-38811595606301981012009-05-20T15:40:26.907-05:002009-05-20T15:40:26.907-05:00Greetings, Viv ~

I'm not sure who told you that most of the potters buy their clay from out of state, though. A great many potters here dig their clay locally, so it is an unbroken tradition dating hundreds of years!!JLK Jewelryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17883154489908156146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5054394971471399775.post-30754309043216710862009-05-18T11:41:00.000-05:002009-05-18T11:41:00.000-05:00Wow, sounds like you had fun.
