Your interest is our most precious asset. It is an honor to
be in your kitchen and on your table. As you feed your family
and friends, you give them gifts — and to us too.
We price our pottery as low as possible. Our way of giving
the thrilling gift of a much desired object on sale is to create
special seasonal ‘free’ gifts — see the inside back cover for the
2016 gifts for gift givers.
This year we are asking for your help: please give a few
minutes to our online survey (see back page). To make it fun
for you, we are giving a small gift to every survey contributor
PLUS a chance for a really really BIG gift!
Thank You.

At Bennington, the essential design happens through the hands.
Yes, we do drawings, work with concepts. But, it is as we make one — the first one —
that the conversation of heart, hand, eye and mind accomplishes the
work of design. You feel this reality when you use this, our homage
to the traditional New England batter bowl.
