Hesperus Pottery - Hunter River, PEI

Hesperus Pottery - Hunter River, PEI.

In 1991 Hesperus Pottery established a US patent for the name Oven God --- a ceramic bread warmer when it had been heated in an oven. Circular in shape of cast ceramic material, the item could also double as a trivet.

A corporate listing website still had a listing for the operation in 2022, although there is no indication if it was current. It listed:
