Reasons to Buy Handmade Pottery: Madeline Anderson

About Madeline:
"I work in R&D at a 3D printing company and I spend most of my free time volunteering with a charity costume group."
 
Do you collect handmade pottery?
"I have a pretty large collection at this point.  I use almost exclusively handmade pottery, I’m not even sure where my commercial dishes ended up after I moved a couple years ago."
 
Why do you buy handmade pottery?
"I like that all my dishes are unique and many of them come with a story.  On several occasions I’ve had friends compliment a piece from my collection and I love being able to tell them about the show the pieces came from or about the artist that made it.  I have several pieces made by friends from school that I don’t see any more so I especially enjoy having their work in my home."
 
How did you acquire a Lisa York piece of pottery?
"I have handful of her pieces.  One teapot and a few cups I got from her while we were at UND together.  I also have a pair of mugs I bought from her online a couple years ago, and a plate of hers that I got at the Northern Clay Center."
