All In The Details Of Collecting And
Creating Pottery.
Plain and simple clay becomes my objects of desire.
Spending time around clay creating plates I like to call
roadside pottery that feels authentic and natural to add
raw materials to my French country home.
The firing kiln temperature allows me to use them
everyday.
I love how they add traces of me being the village potter to
my home. Quirky and mismatched in shapes and size,
rustic and romantic, the time-worn feeling brings
rural France to my home.

Doré, these one of a kind plates match so increadibly with the antique pieces. They are so natural, without Chi-Chi and they add drama to this all - with pleasure one can eat from them.
Lay a table so noble and so rustic at one time.
Wonderful, Doré, I am happy for you :) Your friend Méa
Dore,
I loved your chosen words "Quirky and Romantic", yes, yes, yes!!! Exactly why I plan to purchase a set from you. High firing insures safety, crucial for everyday use on the table. I respect how you research before just jumping into making pottery. I love the mix of rustic, refined and textural ... so this makes my appreciation for your talents ever so much greater. I can imagine a yummy homemade (mine) French Pear Tart served on your charming rustic plate. Hint, hint, hint, hurry them to your etsy store mon amie.

I am not one bit surprised how great your work is. You are a natural
It takes years of collecting to get this look. Still it inspires. I remember my mother having a collection of vintage white china and ironstone. I have a few pieces but not nearly as nice and photogenic and useful as yours.
I love these plates and that they are made with your own two hands - inspiring love and creativity. Your home is one-of-a-kind magic. You've captured the feel of rural France and rustic living at its finest! Enjoy your summer day Dore! Thank you for sharing your works of art with us! Xo, ~julie
Dore, your pottery collection is just gorgeous! I love the 'whimsy' of mismatched pieces, too!

Those plates look so pretty! It's pretty neat that you made those yourself!! I like how they look when stacked. Their unevenness makes them more interesting.
Your pottery creations in clay are gorgeous, Dore! They are quirky, yes, one of a kind each one. I love it all!
Your pottery looks amazing, Dore - nothing like one of a kind pieces that add a touch of whimsy to any space. Happy weekend!!
