Loved this place. Happened upon it while walking around mesilla, next to a nice kids park. Wonderful people working and creating here. We got a few pieces, very reasonably priced. Helped fill some shelves that have been empty for years, and I'm so happy I found the perfect items for that spot. Also love the functional pieces like planters and sconces/hanging lights. Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy pottery. They also have a website and will ship.

Nice store, friendly owners. They showed me around their workshop since I have recently started pottering myself and answered my many questions. While I was taking a tour, my husband found a serving bowls he couldn't live without. Enjoyed our visit.

Great place. Great products. Great people. Great prices. I could have purchased many pieces but I limited myself to one that would fit in my luggage. OF COURSE I WILL BE BACK.

A couple who are excellent potters sell their work from their studio. We had a warm welcome and a nice time looking at their work.

Artists: Jeanne Rundell, Janice Cook & Bill Cook are great artists in their own right, and doing fabulous work in unique art, creative pottery and extraordinary clay lighting. While visiting their fantastic location, we had the opportunity to get a first-hand tour of the shop, showroom and work area, seeing up close and personal how they create and produce their fantastic and whimsical works of art. Their story alone is inspiring, and we learned of the Artists personal passions which inspire such works of art, from design, to creation, to the kiln, the displays, to the showings, to point of purchase! We enjoyed Jeanne Rundell’s sweet, engaging manner, not to mention her personalizing and riveting enlightenments of their process of conceptualizations. We did indeed purchase a couple of unique, one-of-a-kind works (pics to follow) while there! We also had the opportunity to meet not only Jeanne, but Janice Cook and Bill Cook, the other artists comprising the heart, soul and art of “The Potteries”! For posterity, we were able to get a picture of my wife with Jeanne and Janice, the Artists who created the works we purchased. Ask them about their design and renovation of their store’s façade! Whenever in Mesilla, this is a place you cannot afford to miss… the art, the Artists, the showroom, workshop and their work cannot and should not be missed!

Very nice pottery shop. The Cook's are a very friendly and engaging couple and produce interesting pottery items. If you are looking for something authentic in pottery you need to check out this neat shop.

Every trip to The Potteries is a delight. The owners/artists treat you like an old friend and the work is exceptional. I have many, many pieces of work I've purchased from The Potteries (mostly functional porcelain pieces by Janice such as mugs and plates) and I get loads of complements on them. I highly recommend stopping by the shop if you're in the area!
