Bennington Potters is a large hands-on craft pottery...owner and designer David Gill believes art should be available to everyone at reasonable and economical prices. The pottery here is crafted in Vermont only, with a collectable handstamp. Many early pieces from the Bennington Potters are now collector items.

As you walk around this store, which is visually attractive with antiques, you will have before your eyes hundreds of items such as cups, plates,ironware,all quite unique.

Part of this building is an antique School House designed to demonstrate beautiful table settings, blending Bennington Pottery, linens, and decorative accessories. There is also a Gristmill which has discounted merchandise, stocking matching glassware, table linens,wooden accessories,rugs, and their famous Blue Agate hand glazed ware.

Along with the owner, David Gill, this place is also the home of five other production potters whose styles range from modern to classic from traditional to way-out contemporary.

My friend purchased a rather interesting moose iron cup hanger for $28.

When you visit Bennington, don't miss this place.
