Handmade tableware place settings and serving pieces make a statement about your values. Richard Bresnahan, Potter at St. John's University perhaps said it best, " we pass our values on to our kids by the things we use in everyday life." Handmade tableware can dress up for special occassions or be for everyday use. There is some almost magical connection between good cooking and clay pots, for both cooking and serving.

"Handmade tableware is like a Trojan Horse. Making tableware is a way of smuggling 'dangerous' (art) objects into people's lives without them noticing." (Edmund de Waal from Contemporary Ceramics)
