The Sales Cabin

The Sales Cabin at Jugtown was built in 1921 and is a retail pottery and American craft shop. All of our pottery is made here at Jugtown Pottery by Vernon Owens, Pam Owens, and Travis Owens. The nationally exhibited pottery is an evolving line of wares beginning with NC traditional shapes that continue to grow and change to meet the needs of the 21^st century. The jars, vases and bowls have evolved from classic pottery forms made throughout history. Kitchen wares in greens, blues and earth tones, warm wood fired salt glazed pitchers and jugs and elegant yet earthy vases and bowls glazed in Peach bloom, Copper reds, Lavender and Celadon warm the tables and shelves in the sales cabin.

JLK Jewelry at Jugtown by silversmith Jennie Lorette Keatts, has become a wonderful addition to the shop. It is created on site in one of the Jugtown workshops.   Jennie uses silver, 14K gold and copper to create a full line of jewelry set with glazed "gems" created by mingling the Jugtown glazes on small hand made cabochons formed from the clay. Jennie also works on tea sets and jars with sister Pam Owens to create pieces with sterling or copper lids and handles. Her work is continually expanding.

Over seventy craftsperson's and/or artists are also represented in the Jugtown Sales cabin. Pieces available in the sales cabin include wooden spoons and utensils, pewter wares, candles, jewelry, woven throws, paintings, cards, clocks, iron work and placemats. We work diligently to have an exceptional collection of American made crafts available for purchase.

A museum of the pottery's development is in a log cabin next to the shop. Jugtown is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, but if you think it's only about History you're wrong, Jugtown is where tradition merges with innovation.
