Located at Sarah Street in Pittsburgh, Fireborn Studios is dedicated to showcasing some of the most exquisite collections of pottery, glass and other fine crafts while also conducting a number of pottery classes for enthusiasts of all ages.
All the pottery displayed at the Fireborn gallery is fired in the Fireborn kiln. The selection of handcrafted glasswork, wooden engraved pieces and jewelry is an apt representation of the diversity that is found in the artistic renditions of American artists. The pottery collection, however, is undoubtedly the most breathtaking and is touted to be the largest and most inclusive collection of Fireborn pottery in the world. Here, you can expect to find unconventional, experimental designs, one-of-a-kind glazes and even pieces from discontinued collections.
For those on a budget, the selection of seconds and the discounted pieces allows you to take home a charming piece of earthen art at unbelievably reasonable rates.
If you've always wanted to try your skills at clay-throwing but don't know when to begin, you can even register for the Adult Pottery Classes that are conducted here. With concise class sizes, personalized instruction and dedicated wheels, Fireborn Studios is sure to bring out the latent craftsman in you. Fireborn Studios also conducts classes on Saturday afternoons for children between the age of 5 and 15 years.
The Studios, which were established by Dan Vito and Donna Hetrick in the year of 1985, also showcase their fine handiwork at various noteworthy galleries throughout the country.
