Eldreth Pottery

EldrethPottery1

The Eldreth Pottery Showroom and Factory is located in 
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in a town called Oxford. 

After driving down bucolic country roads, here's what you see. 
Doesn't this just beckon you to go in and take a look?

Eldreth Pottery was established in 1982, with beginnings in a basement, followed by growth and success!

Pete took me behind the scenes. From the mixer to the kilns, this is where the action is!

I so enjoyed my visit! I couldn't resist bringing home a purchase,
which I can't tell you about since I'd reveal the secret gift for a special someone!
(After I give it to her, I'll come back and show you a photo.)
