Ivana provided us invaluable assistance in selecting multiple statues, and we are delighted with our purchase. Following the holidays, we plan to return to choose a fountain and some pots from their extensive and reasonably priced selection.

Great place for garden statuary, fountains and decorative yard art. Quality is good with some of the lowest prices for similar items. Very helpful staff, all members of the same family.

We just purchased the fourth garden statue from Art Craft since moving to the Bay Area a few years ago. We have been very happy with all our purchases in terms of quality, price, and customer support. As they state, they are a family owned business who cares about their customers and stand by the quality of their products. I got a chance to chat with the owner, Alipio, who was happy to offer me tips about the maintenance of their statues, and proudly showed me how they manufacture all their products on site using old world casting techniques and craftmanship. As some of the other reviewers have mentioned, their prices are unbeatable if you buy from them directly. The same pieces we purchased from them were at least double in price at the local retail stores. We highly recommend visiting their showroom and seeing what they offer in person. They usually don't have everything in their catalog on display but still have a nice selection of similar products to guide you.

My mother in law has an incredible collection of garden statues. I wanted to add a couple special pieces as a gift. The team at Art Craft did such an incredible job custom making these statues. AND the customer service was fantastic! Thank you so much!

Contacted the supplier, Art Craft, of a fountain I bought at Pottery World (since Potter World offered no assistance). Sent them photos of a less than 7 year old fountain that is crumbling and this is the response I got: I showed the owner your bowl, and if you wanted to repair it, he suggests fill/patch it with bondo and sand it smooth. If that doesn't work to give him a call, Alipio 510-633-1411. Or if you are looking to replace it, we sell the #2020H Bowl for $1100, will call in Oakland. Hope this helps. So, I live 2+ hours away from Oakland, don't have a truck, but I'm welcome to buy another probably defective bowl, pick it up (they probably weigh about 300 - 500 pounds) and install it on my own after disassembling the fountain that Pottery World said they wouldn't do because they feared the whole fountain will disintegrate - I might die trying to disassemble, GREAT! All this on a fountain that cost over $10,000 so that is roughly $1500/year of enjoyment for a throw away fountain. CRAP product!

Met the lovely owner and his daughter and their super nice crew loaded a fountain into my Tesla in a few minutes and gave me all the pro tips for setting up my mother's day gift

This place is awesome. Needed some sort of statue for a shelf on our house & I just wasn't finding anything I liked at local home improvement stores/nurseries and buying a statue on Etsy was cost prohibitive due to shipping. I custom ordered a gnome from their catalog & it was ready in just 2 days!!! And the prices are the lowest you'll find. I think I paid in the $80-90 range for the gnome & he's 23 inches tall. The area isn't the greatest, but there's easy street parking right out front. They also make custom fountains as well as statues. (They're closed from 12:30-1pm for lunch.) So happy I found this place on Yelp!

Only thing I can complain is I had to call them few times for the delivery as supposed to them following up when the fountain was ready. You can't beat the price. For the same fountain, same model I purchased from here the competitor asked me twice as much. I purchased a fountain, pedestal and a pump. They did the delivery and the set up. Very professional!

Great selection of fountains and garden statuary in the showroom, perhaps 200 pieces ranging from pieces you can hold in your hand to massive multi-tiered fountains. Many more pieces are available from a catalog with choice of color and 2 week turn around. Very good prices. Just be advised the cast stone statues are, not surprisingly, heavy as a rock. They loaded for me there, but I did have to move a 100 pound statue to my back yard.

We just purchased a fountain from these folks. Drove past their warehouse when we first arrived -- didn't see it at first. But it was full of all kinds of cast stone fountains, lots of sizes and prices (ours was around $250), and they had a book showing everything that wasn't currently on the floor. Such great people -- an old fashioned family business, really friendly and warm -- we totally recommend giving them a visit. IMPORTANT: if you go on a Saturday (like us) don't park across the street (like us) and get a stupid parking ticket (like us). Finally just paid it now. Grump.

Great staff great prices.. right next to the all famous Scotties Check cashing corner. I had a Mary that got stolen, so I bought one here. I used to pass by this jewel of a place but never went in.. I just finally walked in needing to replace mine. What Class people. Walking through the statues I did however feel Catholic guilt well up inside of me.. But thats another story.....
