New! See our Pottery in 3D!

Peter Pots Pottery was born at 54 Meeting Street on College Hill on the East Side of Providence. We then moved to the Carriage House at 30 Benefit Street, also on the College Hill, and later to 14 Sheldon Street in West Warwick. In 1954, we moved to what has been our home ever since, the historic Glen Rock Mill at 494 Glen Rock Road in West Kingston.

To be true to our " stoneware standards", we prefer to remain a small group of craftsmen selling our ware at the Pottery in West Kingston, through the mail by catalog and via the Internet. As we approach our fifth decade, we still produce many of the designs that we introduced in Providence, and we still offer our time-honored colors of Mahogany Brown and Seagull Blue.

We give exacting attention to handles, spouts, and pouring lips, and to the balance and size of our stoneware. Each item must be perfect before it is signed "Peter Pots". The stoneware articles assembled here are all designed and made by the craftsmen at Peter Pots. In addition, we also formulate our own glazes and blend the stoneware clay that gives our product its unique luster and strength. Careful craftsmanship requires extra time, and since we wish to make only the best, we ask that you allow us the few weeks necessary to make an outstanding article if it is currently out of stock.

With the same care given our pottery, we have created this Web site to assist you in your year-round gift selection. We only wish we could include the hush of the brook that passes our door, and mingle this soft sound with a whiff of the pines that brush the stone walls of our old grist mill that is now a pottery. Until the time when you can visit us, and for our friends across the country who can not get to us, this Web site will bring the color and craftsmanship of Peter Pots Kingston Kilns to you.
