WHITE HOUSE PONDERS PALMER!


In January, The Wall Street Journalbroke news that Potter, Frances Palmer, was being looked at as one of the American Artisans to decorate the White House. Frances Palmer has been a bluecashew favorite since we've opened and we are so proud to have both her one-of-a-kind custom centerpieces and the Frances Palmer Pearl Collection cast from handmade molds by century-old white Buffalo Pottery.

Frances Palmer Pottery is perfect for everyday tabletop and conversation starting statements and all the pieces go from your oven to the table and are also freezer and dishwasher safe. Whether it's snazzing your home up with some flowers in the beautiful Frances Palmer Signature, signed Big Belly Vase or having that high noon tea party you always wanted but never the amazingly adorned Pearl Collection tea cups and saucers to have it with, this collection is the one for you. So, cross your fingers for Palmer and while the White House ponders her Pottery you can see it first hand here! - G
