Melissa Steele Pottery

I’m Melissa Steele, a Vermont potter, preschool teacher, mom, and outdoor enthusiast who believes the best pottery is the kind you actually use. Through Melissa Steele Pottery, I create wheel-thrown, functional ceramics made for everyday moments—morning coffee, messy meals, and cozy evenings at home. Inspired by life with kids and time spent outdoors, each piece is handmade with care, meant to be loved, used often, and become part of your daily routine (yes, that means put them in the dishwasher!).
