Mary Mikkelsen and Henry Pope

Mary and Henry ( Mikpo Pottery) use a fine white translucent porcelain and a variety of stonewares - dark and light firing - to make a broad range of functional and sculptural pieces. Each piece is hand thrown or constructed from slabs and is individually decorated with food-safe materials.

Their functional work is safe to use in microwaves or dishwashers.





Customers love their Oriental motif using small colorful birds, herons and bamboo along with carvings in the pottery to give it texture. We have a wide selection of platters, bowls, vases, mugs and jars for dinnerware or just to display.
