The Story of Trillium Pottery
Trillium Pottery is a passion project based in the Pacific Northwest US creating unique handmade, collectible pottery wares. I chose the trillium flower to represent my work because of it's deep personal meaning to me representing growth on our own time, the rebirth of early spring, and the love I have for nature and my home here on the Columbia River Gorge.
My desire is to create works that connect our emotions and memories to symbolism, folklore and nature's beauty. Elevating everyday wares into artwork that has deep, personal meaning for you.
Thank you for being here!
Peace + Love,
Heather Mattole

FAQ
Sizing details
Because these wares are handmade, all the sizes are approximate. In regard to volume of mugs, vases or other vessels that may hold liquid, I measured the this myself per object using water.
Care instructions
Most of my wares are dishwasher and microwave safe, but some may not be due to additions of decorative rocks, sensitive details or 22k gold luster. Please check the item description for details about care.
Also, as with any ceramic piece, it is best not to pour boiling water into the vessels! The extreme temperature change can cause the ceramic to crack or shatter!
What to expect of handmade items?
All of my wares and pieces are handmade either on a pottery wheel or simply with my own hands. Please do not expect me to have the ability to recreate an exact replica of another piece. Also, measurements are approximate, things may not be perfectly straight or perfectly squared. Small and harmless flaws are sometimes inevitable.
Food Safe?
All my wares are made with commercially made food safe glazes. Even if an item is considered a "seconds" piece and is discounted, it will be food safe! I will never sell you something that I am not confident is safe for use around food or beverage!
Purely decorative pieces may not always be food safe, but I will be sure to make that clear if that is the case!
Custom and personalized orders
I currently do not have availability to do custom work at this time! But I will have made to order work available on occasion. Made to order listings are limited to my capacity and availability will be announced via email.
Wholesale availability
Currently, I do not have availability for wholesale.

Let customers speak for us
Heather is such a talented artist! The mug she made is beautiful!
I love my new mug so much! I follow you on Instagram so I can see your process (and because you are awesome)! The mug I ended up buying was my favorite of the last batch and I can’t believe I was lucky enough to get it! I was sure it was going to sell at the booth you ran. I guess it was destined for me <3 Thank you for your creativity and dedication to your craft!
I’ve been waiting years for a piece of Heather’s gorgeous art, and it did not disappoint!! I love it so much, thank you for sharing your creativity and passion making the world a little happier with each piece.
To say I enjoy my Zelda mug is an understatement. The craftswoman-ship is unprecedented. I have been enjoying sipping tea while I rescue Zelda all over again. Priceless investment!
Great customer service, and excellent work! That's why I have 3 of them. :)
I’ve ordered from this wonderful artist a couple of times! She makes beautiful pottery and is so professional with her communication and shipping. And she has such a fun instagram page! Highly recommend getting some of her work if you can catch it. Sells out quick!
I am literally using it now! Such a gorgeous piece for my collection. I’m so happy with the purchase.
The colors on the glaze are rich and lovely, and the patterns and texture are beautiful and fun. It pretty immediately became my new daily go-to coffee mug. Thanks for sharing your art with the world!
We LOVE the mug. Amazing design and makes us feel a little bit of the Pacific Northwest here on the east. Incredible carving and the drips covering the designs are perfect. It’s my new favorite mug!
I love my new mug! It’s a lovely design that easily holds my morning tea. Both the geometric pattern and glaze perfectly complement each other. Also, it came carefully packaged with two tea bags ☕️☕️ Everything about Trillium Pottery from creation to shipping is thoughtfully done ♥️
