Exclusive at Fire Opal!  This Brookline landmark is the first thing you see in our neighborhood when stepping off the green line at the Coolidge Corner stop. When it opened in 1898 the S.S. Pierce Store sold imported goods from all over the world, as well as local provisions from Boston area farmers and artisans.

 

The artist draws each image by hand directly into the porcelain clay with a knife and inlays a dark underglaze. The high temperature of the kiln combined with a clear glaze overlay slightly blurs the drawing, much like a faded memory. She often references imagery from her past as a way to establish a personal connection. 

Mug measures 4" by 4"; 12 oz

Food and dishwasher safe. Each piece is unique. Slight variations may occur.

Handmade in Acton, MA
