For over 35 years, DOUG JONES has been handcrafting coastal-themed stoneware pottery and sculpture depicting seaturtles, fish, manatees, etc.His work can be found in galleries in Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, and in Maui, Hawaii.

As an island potter, Doug transforms clay into things of beauty that are found on the coastal island he and his wife Pat call home... mugs, bowls, canisters, baking dishes and sculpture magically come out of the fire as starfish, crabs and other forms of sea life for your use and enjoyment.

Doug says he will spend more time on each piece - whether pottery wheel, slab construction or sculpture - than many potters because he believes in giving you his best work. With proper care, his functional art pieces can be heirlooms to hand down for generations.

Doug's famous Dip Bowl with a three-dimensional clay seaturtle, starfish, fish or shell to tuck the wooden spreader into are our gallery's #1-selling GIFT ITEM, hands down! And the fact that each bowl comes with a fabulous recipe for Island Shrimp Spread seals the deal. You and your friends will love them!

All pieces are dishwasher safe. Mugs and bowls are also microwave safe and all casserole dishes are, of course, oven safe. Bon appetite!
