East Fork Asheville - Asheville, North Carolina

Jenny McKee

East Fork makes exceptionally well-made pottery and you can see all the current glazes in their Asheville store! It is really helpful to be able to compare the different sized bowls and plates, since figuring out exactly what you might want for dinnerware by shopping online can be tricky (they have so many options for bowls!). They also sell beautiful silverware and other home goods here. This store is definitely worth visiting when in Asheville!

I was so thrilled to be able to finally visit the East Fork storefront in Asheville! I’ve been collecting East Fork Pottery for years now, and it was such a fun experience to pick out my own pieces in the shop instead of just ordering things online!

The shop itself was a total delight! It is bright and perfectly curated. The two workers were as enthusiastic about East Fork as I was, and were happy see listen to me gush about how much I love their pottery. We all decided that everything looks better on East Fork Pottery!!!

If you are a long time East Fork fan, you can ask to see all the past colors from their collection that’s under the front desk. It’s like a trip down memory lane!!!

I ordered the small black mountain candle thru their website. I love the pottery color which is described as a raven in moonlight. It is the perfect size to place on a desk. The Scent developed and poured by Joya Studios is a blend of Hinoki, Mushroom, Dirt and Firewood. It truly delivers on my expectations of the smell of the woods after an afternoon storm. I was raised along "the grade" near Ceasar's Head, Sc; this candle is a reminder of the woods I used to wander in for hours.

I was BEYOND excited to finally get to visit the East Fork Shop in AVL. I live on the coast, and my sissy in Brevard, so we finally made the time to visit! The staff were SUPER helpful, and it was so difficult to decide which color to choose to begin my dinnerware collection!
Being a production potter myself for many years, I understand the labor of love that goes into a piece. They truly make the masses happy with all of the stunning options of glaze colors they have to offer!
I spent a pretty penny, but it was all worth it, one day I will be able to pass these pieces down to my children.
My Christmas Eve dinner table was decked out in East Fork and that was all I wanted for the holidays!

My experience was that they will not stand by their product once it leaves their door, even if it’s a manufacturing defect or quality issue.

After less than six months of very light use, hand washing and not being dropped, my mug cracked clean through along the wall of the mug. Store employee that inspected the mug said that the crack was highly irregular but only offered a 20% off on a replacement. Customer Care Team offered the same thing without even asking to see the mug.

I really have loved this mug. Great feel and a beautiful piece of pottery, but I’m not willing to risk buying another if this happens again.

East Fork is an impressive and stylish pottery store with beautiful plates, bowls, and silver wear. There is also a cool selection of books about cooking and cocktails. The staff was extremely friendly. Some people might consider East Fork to be a bit pricey, but the quality and craftsmanship make the price appropriate and worth it.

I am beyond ecstatic! I have never had such a pleasant and more generous experience with a business in my life. My wife bought me my first mug that I had been dreaming about having for a while now… and it was everything I knew it would be, and more. Even more beautiful in person.
Every piece of pottery they make is out of this world beautiful AND it’s top notch quality. I spoke with Virginia after receiving my mug. She was so friendly, personable, and helpful. They sent me the most amazing gift and I’m losing my mind over here!! AHHH! 🙂 I’m over the moon and so grateful. Thank you so much, East Fork! <3

Okay, so it’s been a slow burn love affair since 2018. I used to dream about the day I’d commit to a single color for our lives, but I’m happy to report that I’ve become a full on obsessed-with-every-color woman. A stack of my mood bowls as I call it. What vibe is this meal? What tone am I setting with my day? And I know, I know, it’s a bowl, calm down. But this has brought absolute joy into my mundane mornings
