Love Matthew Metz’s work. I came to this year’s St Croix Valley Pottery Tour looking to buy one of his beer stein mugs. Last year, I put one down and lamented not buying it. But he didn’t have any available! It’s okay — I’ll check next year. Metz is holding a new style of mug he’s been making lately — note the round circular carvings in the background of the design. It’s just lovely.
