Custom Trivets

private collection of a friend

The artists who worked with Iron Mountain Stoneware created interesting, one-of-a-kind pieces as well as custom work for customers and pieces to sell through their outlet store in Laurel Bloomery, Tennessee.  Here is an example of a hot plate or trivet with a custom painted image from a historic building in Pennsylvania.  Nancy remembers painting some trivets for a customer who sent her some images of stone houses or buildings in the area there.  The trivet had a simple IMS potter's mark on the back written with a pencil and a paper, stick-on price tag (imprinted with the words Iron Mountain Stoneware) for $15.00.
