Susan Horowitz is a maker of wheel-thrown stoneware pottery. She designs functional pottery to be used in daily life–a common reaction to her work is “what a good idea.” She strives to make handles that fit the hand, pots that drain and “fight the yuk factor,” pots that work well and will bring joy to those who use them. She makes dinnerware, pots for the bathroom, decorative pieces and Jewish ritual pottery. Her pots are glazed in the colors of the sea and sand, and the brushwork and sgraffito decorations are based on the patterns left in the sand by the receding tides. DownEast magazine named Susan’s mug the “Best Handcrafted Mug” in Maine in 2010, and the Double Dip Dinghy was featured in Coastal Living magazine July-August 2017.

Hello! I am Leane Morin, a watercolor illustrator who has lived in Maine all my life. Firefly Sky Design features vibrant, heartfelt images on greeting cards, magnets, stickers, notepads, and other printed goods. I am inspired by so many things, but I am most moved to the painting table by quotations, animals, and nature. I believe in the power of words and images to inspire, uplift, and connect us all. It’s the motivation behind the work that I do.
Cheers and warm wishes from Augusta!

Posted by Becky Wright & filed under .
Becky Wright works with stoneware clay on the wheel to create three handmade collections: Tableware, Kitchen and Home Decor. Becky is greatly influenced by landscapes and skylines. These horizons and seascapes inspire her glazed works as she overlaps two colors to let the lines blur, creating intense color combinations with depth and alluring details. All the pottery is dishwasher and microwave safe and intended for everyday use. Becky lives with her family in South Portland, Maine and has her studio in her home.
Benoit’s Design Co.

Benoit’s Design Co.
We are Benoit’s Design Co, a small shop of designers & makers, founded by Greg and Christina Benoit. Our ethos comes from the original Benoit’s, a staple store in Maine known for its quality products and great customer service. The original Benoit’s was started by Greg’s great grandfather in 1898 and closed its doors in the 1990s.
The inspiration behind what we do comes from our passions for adventure, as well as designing and making things. Our product line began with our Casco Bay coastal chart panel, which was simply developed to celebrate the place we live. Now, we curate a large line of charts and maps that feature locations around the globe. We have found that our connection to places have fueled most of the inspiration for our products. This can be very direct, as with our maps, but also more subtle, through our apparel, décor and other curiosities. We create and curate products to help people tell their story and celebrate their passions.
