A story worth sharing...

We received an  email a few weeks ago with the above opener, "A story worth sharing..."

It was an incredible story of love and resilience that we will never forget. Usually, we don't know the back story for the many pieces of personalized pottery we have created over the years. It's an honor when we do get to know more about our customers; especially when reading the following letter.

                                    

                                   

Dear Zotter the Potter —

When my wife and I had our ninth anniversary, six years ago I ordered a beautiful ceramic jug from you to celebrate. We cherished it and took it with us to our new home three years ago. Unfortunately, that home was in the Pacific Palisades. Six weeks ago our house was decimated in the fire. 

This week I went back to survey the destruction. There was nothing left… except for your beautiful piece of pottery. It’s literally the only thing that survived. And yet it’s so poignant.  It’s become an even bigger symbol of the strength of our marriage and the love of our family. 

I just wanted to share a picture of the house and the jug.

Sincerely

Ben

Perfectly romantic anniversary story...

"Can I tell you that my husband and I both ordered one. And didn't know. I opened the box with his in it thinking it was mine that I ordered lol. I had to tell him because the box was opened. He ordered it a little differently, so we both thought it was hilarious that we both ordered one so we're gonna have both in our house. It's a great story.
Thanks"

There's something so very delightful about the unexpected moments we share with our loved ones. A couple, both excitedly anticipating their own unique pottery piece from Zotter the Potter, only to discover that they’ve both ordered the same item! This perfectly romantic story captures the joy as they unpack their surprise gifts.. The shared chuckle over the mix-up turns into a cherished memory, a reminder of their connection and the fun they have together.

At Zotter the Potter, we believe that every piece of personalized pottery tells a story, and it's these happy surprises that make life even more beautiful. Crafted with love and attention to detail, our pottery is not just a gift; it's a memory waiting to be created.
