Stony Brook is a small studio operated by Nancy Rendinaro. Nancy produces beautiful hand-crafted plates, mugs, vases, platters and other housewares.
Nancy makes functional as well as collectible or decorative pieces. Handmade stars make a great holiday gift, while mugs are a practical gift for college students or colleagues.
Nancy does not maintain an inventory of pottery , but rather creates every set based on a fresh inspiration or friendly request. Within each handmade batch she may carefully match the size and glazes to create a uniform set, or lightly play with the attributes to make distinctive pieces.
You will never get a generic piece from Nancy. Every piece is freshly thrown, glazed and fired usually after an order has been placed or to prepare for an upcoming show. It is all done within Stony Brook Studio. Nancy says this constant change keeps her inner artist challenged and interested. She admits she simply would not enjoy turning out bland and uniform pieces all day.
