About Blue Mountain Pottery:

Blue Mountain Pottery was a Canadian pottery company located in Collingwood, Ontario. It was founded in 1947 by Jozo Wieder and closed in 2004. Originally producing hand painted ski motifs on purchased blanks, production of the red clay items started in 1953-1954. It went on to produce various types of pottery, from animal figurines to jugs, pots and vases. The company's products have a large fan base and are collected worldwide.

Blue Mountain Pottery items feature a unique, trademarked glazing process known as "re-flowing decorating." Two different liquid glazes, one light and one dark in color, were applied. During the firing process the glazes would run, creating streaking patterns unique to each piece.

Blue Mountain Pottery items were available in the traditional green hues, but also in harvest gold, cobalt blue, mocha, pewter, red, and brown.

Shipping FAQ:

-This item is in the more expensive dimensional weight class requiring UPS to get the best price. -I am in a remote area, and am assessed a "rural pickup fee" on larger items when shipping doesn't coincide with my trips into town. Even with this fee, UPS is more economical. -Etsy currently doesn't calculate UPS, so the amount shown is a flat UPS estimate for UPS within the US. -Because of the above, please note that I WILL REFUND shipping overages if you are geographically close and the actual UPS charge is significantly lower than the quoted amount. -I may also be able to include the pickup fee in the refund if I am driving into town and can drop off the package during the shipping window. -If you have any questions about shipping, please reach out and I may be able to experiment with some options to get you the best price.
