CUSTOM TABLEWARE

"Features" Clay Coyote Custom Tableware
We were really flattered a few months ago, when Sara Goodrich of Gabbert's Design in the Galleria in Edina, MN, approached us about making a custom set of casual dining tableware for the 2008 ASID Showcase Home. We really didn't realize what a 'big deal' this was. Click on the top headline for a link to the Star-Tribune's coverage and professional photos of this beautiful home.

Sarah is a designer for Gabbert's (sgoodrich@gabberts.com) and one of the 3 women who worked to design this casual, easy living room. We had the chance to tour the home last week at the 'resources' night. It was quite an experience! For those who don't know, we do many sets of tableware each year for customers looking for the unique for their table settings. We have 2 basic styles-European and Asian, and, as we did for the Showcase Home, also do completely custom work. Right now Tom just finished a set of custom plates with an off-center foot and a cantilevered rim where the glaze design will go. It should make for a spectacular presentation of food. Visit the Clay Coyote website for more information on custom tableware. From there you can cruise for various items. Many sets are done for wedding registries.
