Rob and Beth Mangum, from Mangum Pottery Studio and Gallery seven miles from Asheville, in Weaverville, NC, come from a family of potters. Their creative process is guided by the clay itself, through years of studying the nature of the materials.
The Mangums strive to find the union between heritage and contemporary design. They feel very fortunate to live and work in a community with so much awareness and support for the arts.
Stroll down Main Street Weaverville and you may wander into this working pottery studio. As you step into the gallery you’ll see displays of pitchers, teapots, and tableware next to hand built vases, ceramic furniture and banjos. Beyond the wares are craftsmen hard at work.
Wonderful shop, the customer service was great. All of the pottery is high quality and hand-made, I bought a mug and truly love it. Stop by if you are in the area!

We walked in this store on a whim and I'm so glad we did. The owner was super friendly and even let our kids play with some clay so we could shop. We got a few pieces in the Blue ridge glaze and can't wait to use them! Will definitely plan to stop by next time we're in the area!
