CLOSED Oh Neighbors, Here is another really nice company to share At the Fence. Pull up a chair while I tell you a little bit about Emerson Creek Pottery . First off, they are handcrafted and lead free. Isn't that a great start! They are made right in Bedford, VA. The company was founded in 1977 by Priscilla Palmer and Jim Leavitt. They carry, dinnerware, bakeware, kitchenware, Ceramic Pitchers, Tea Pots, Tea Sets and Servingware. The designs on them are beautiful. I received the Ceramic Iced Tea Pitcher with the Iris design. I really had a hard time choosing a design. Of course you can purchase matching items in each design. All the Ceramic pieces are microwave and dishwasher safe, and ovenproof. They even carry baby dishes. Now, you won't have to worry about all the toxins in plastic. (You can even personalize them!) The Baby Dishes come in Goldfish, Ladybug, and Shamrock. They even carry lamps , clocks, candlesticks and other home decor that matches t
