The staff is polite and the merchandise is well displayed, varied, and artistic. The buyer does a great job of finding unique items in the Cape theme for the space available. The only negative is that it it is sometimes closed when we are in the area. They need time off, and we understand. Just note that it is not a chain store with long year round hours. We will return and have positive expectations.

It is a locally owned business of over 12 artists, craftsmen and women who all have their studios on Cape Cod. Truly a locally owned business.

I had read about Jobi Pottery in a magazine and a few websites in Cape Cod and, on a cloudy day…read moredecided to stop in. What is produced now is vastly different in complexity of design and color from the original Jobi Pottery. These new functional pieces (do not put in dishwasher) are brightly colored with a simple, repetitive, hand- painted design of a fish. They are striking and whimsical and are priced at a moderate to expensive cost dependent upon size. It was good to stop and see. Did not purchase due to cost vs artistry.

Exactly what I was looking for and prices are actually very good! The fact is that you really…read morecan't get much better than this especially when you live on Cape Cod year-round.

BEAUTIFUL! The loveliest glass work ever seen! Some of it very pricey (deducted 1 YELP STAR for…read morethat) but fabulous and fantastic place to visit. In the area to see the relatives and my aunt took us to visit Pairpoint, which has been in business since 1837! Talk about being around for a while! Pairpoint is America's oldest glass work company and an informative and interesting shopping experience. Watch the glass-makers create their pieces. The extraordinary craftsmanship is fascinating to watch. The Sagamore location on Cape Cod offers a chance to witness the artistry of glassblowing Monday through Friday. The gift shop is open every day of the week! The finest homes in America have displayed pieces of Pairpoint glass. According to the Pairpoint website, "glass is an art form and as such is in a continuous state of transformation. Pairpoint quickly established itself at the forefront by consistently inventing new techniques and stylistic trends that are copied to this day. In addition to the famous "puffies", Lava, Peachglow and Satin glass were first created by Pairpoint glassblowers." Pairpoint provides custom glass and crystal commemorative pieces and trophies to some of America's most prestigious sporting clubs and organizations. In 1974, Pairpoint began issuing limited edition pressed cup plates that have become highly collectible. There are now about 100 different patterns to collect. The beautiful glass ware is something to behold. I am not into buying a lot of stuff and putting it up on shelves to collect dust but that Cranberry glass was so gorgeous! You have to visit and take in the historical and artistic value of Pairpoint. Not to be missed activity on Cape Cod!

What fun! I actually wanted the tour to be longer and shop to be bigger since it was a bit of a…read moretight fit with a tour group of ~30-40 people. I loved seeing the colorful buckets of broken glass and witnessing the live glass blowing. The previous molds and items used/made decades (if not hundreds of years) ago were also neat to see and provided interesting insight to the evolution of the company. For the gift shop, I would have appreciated a few more pieces that were in the $25-50 range. There were a lot of small, inexpensive pieces at $15 or less, but then it jumped to larger, expensive pieces ($60+) with not much in the middle.

I had a lovely experience at Barnstable Pottery this week. What I love about this store is that…read moreKevin doesn't try to hide the process. Right when you walk in, you see 4 wheels set up. Then as you walk around the store, you can see pottery at all stages of its production. Bonus for me: the day I was there, Kevin was talking to his high school art teacher who inspired him to go into this field. It was so nice to see the mentor/mentee relationship, and from their conversation is sounds like Kevin is paying this forward with some youngins. The pottery is lovely, but the best places are all about the people behind the art, and Barnstable Pottery is one of those places.

On a sunny Sunday I was taking a slow, meandering trip back to Boston when we stumbled upon this…read morequaint little studio on 6A in Barnstable. Now I, being a fan, enthusiast and novice artist myself always have a special place in my heart for a pottery studio. When I walked in with my two partners in crime, we found the studio owner sitting at one of 4 wheels trimming pieces and enjoying the wonderful sunny day. There was a basset hound lounging on the floor and a charming woman keeping him company. Walking in you are immediately at ease, listening to the fountain made of thrown pieces and other parts as it playfully blows to each part. There are combination pieces making castles of all sizes in addition to other functional pieces. Mugs, vases, bowls, other little jars and containers. The castles themselves were impressive and obviously he has a considerable amount of time vested in each. I had even seen a bowl I was sure was hand build slab work but low and behold it was a huge, shallow bowl that had obvious signs of thrown work. There were even small oil lamps he had thrown and built. I almost regret not purchasing anything. Then we got to talking. He was welcoming and laid back almost as you would expect anyone to be who enjoys cape life. He was full of knowledge about all sorts of other things and even directed us to great lunch spots and a coffee house he raved about in the village. We had to have chatted for over an hour while admiring the style of his art that surrounded us. As we were hurrying out the door to get to the coffee shop before it close, we promised to be back. And next time I am NOT leaving empty handed.

In my opinion, it looked like there was something wrong with it - it was flawed and I was not happy with it. She tried to tell me it was supposed to be like that. My Mom and family have been shopping there for over 25 years. No pieces we have ever purchased had this flaw in it Or we would not have purchased it. She was being super difficult and had such an attitude and was unwilling to accommodate me. She wanted to give me a gift certificate for the price I paid for the piece. I'm sorry but if your're unwilling to work with me and re-do the flawed/defective piece then I don't want anything else in your store. Give me my money back! I don't trust you nor do I want to do business with your store anymore When I told her that, she said "Good". If you want to be treated like crap and not be appreciated for your patronage, then go here. Otherwise, steer clear of "Jade" and the Chatham Pottery shop. It's overpriced and she doesn't stand behind her work! That's the price of doing business . Shame on you!
