The George Griffin Pottery, Sopchoppy

I had pottery made by George over 20 years ago, my Grandmother bought it for me as a graduation gift. I love it, it is as beautiful now as it was then. I remember George well and I hope to get back there soon. Such amazing art work!!

I have a coffe cup that was given to me for a birthday gift in 1990, made by George. I've had many conversations n made many friends down thru the years because of his love for pottery. Never visited the store, but I'll be there soon!

I had passed by the sign many times over the years on my way to/from Tallahassee to Saint George from Atlanta. Yesterday I stopped in - very glad I did. George was warm and engaging. We talked about his art (he blends his own clays and glazes, uses a wood fired kiln) And his love of local flora and fauna. I purchased a beautiful platter for our anniversary next month as a surprise for my wife - she will be elated. Take time to stop in and say hello in there!

We did visit the pottery shop . There were rows of hand made lamps on several shelves . The lamp we bought was unique . With the rope looking handles , it looked as though it were once a pot , turned into a lamp . Beautiful work . Worth the visit to see for yourself .

I'm so glad that we stumbled upon this hidden gem of a place! George and his two dogs were so welcoming; they even gave us a tour of his pottery studio and kiln. His pottery is so unique and earthy and his prices are reasonable. Even if you don't buy anything (which you probably will!), go talk to George, see his artwork, read all the inspiring quotes on the walls, and be out in the beautiful nature surrounding his studio. I hope to return again soon!
