Charlottetown Pottery Ltd. - 1980's

Charlottetown Pottery Ltd. was a short-lived pottery factory was established on Prince Edward Island in the 1980's which operated in the West Royalty Industrial Park and produced a wide line of decor items. The hoped for stability of the company was based on that fact that they had a contract to supply crock-pot liners. The company operated for awhile but didn't survive financially. Recently I came across these images of their work on ebay. 

The work was signed "Made in Canada - Charlottetown Pottery Ltd."




Seaclay Pottery - Jamie Germaine

Located at 1043 South Melville Road, South Melville, Seaclay Pottery is the studio name for Jamie Germaine, and accomplished potter whose work forms part of the Prince Edward Island Art Bank Collection.

"Working out of a studio beside her home in South Melville, PEI, Jamie Germaine produces both wheel-thrown and hand-built pieces with a unique style of textured surfacing that has become characteristic of her work. Her surrounding environment of woodland and sea is reflected in the organic nature of the surfaces she creates on her pieces. She has recently been experimenting with the subtle effects of smoke firing on hand-built bowls. She has studied pottery in New York, Vermont, Prince Edward Island, Mexico and Italy and has exhibited in Prince Edward Island and New York."
