Photographer and blogger Leah Verwey recently visited us to document our creative space for her aptly named new blog SPACE — sneak a peak inside our studio here and check out the other creative Portland forces she’s recently documented while you’re there. I love the concept of her blog and cannot wait to glimpse inside more studios and workshops in the coming months.

We had the pleasure of being visited by KOIN 6 news yesterday, as part of their new “Keep it Local” program. Check out the video, below.

We couldn’t be more pleased to be featured in the new issue of Portland Monthly – our favorite local glossy on all things Portland. You can read the full article online here or see it in the new issue, on newsstands now.

“Hough’s bowls, cups, vases, and planters capture a rich contemporary design aesthetic at an affordable price. Combine those two elements with Portland’s love of the local—every Pigeon Toe piece is made here, from locally sourced materials—and you’ve got a recipe for recession-proof success.”

Our ears are burning. A big thanks to Lisa Radon for the write up, and Brandon Joseph Baker for capturing my good side.

Our stacking thimble cups are featured today on one of my favorite blogs, Design for Mankind. We are offering DFM readers a chance to win a free set – comment on their blog post to enter and the winner will be notified July 14. And of course, if you’re not the gambling type or can’t wait, you can special order the set for $22 here.

We are so, so pleased to announce that Rare Device in San Francisco will be carry Pigeon Toe Ceramics in a few short weeks. We’ve made about half their order already and the pieces are very excited to hop into the kiln and travel down to sunny California, where they hope to grace the homes of tasteful people everywhere. They will be both online (how I shop up in here in Portland) and in-store. Their carefully curated shop is a go-to link whenever I’m looking for gifts.
