Letters from Customers
These are in the history because we seldom sell thing over the Internet anymore most sales being wholesale orders of magnets/ornaments.
Actually to be precise these are e-mails, mostly from customers. They all are unsolicited e-mails which we have received from other people and which I have cut and pasted onto this page without making any changes to them. You may wonder if I wrote these but I'm not that good a writer.
Many thanks Bill. Received in perfect condition - it really is a good piece of art, I'm happy I stopped by.
We received our luminary yesterday and it is absolutely perfect. Thank you so much for tailoring it to our preferences.
My Jewish step-mother (and my father) really liked the Hanukkah lamp I had you send them at the beginning of the year. They were very proud of it and remarked that I had surprised them (once again ) not only with good taste and something completely unique. She had never seen anything in its like before. (She's from New York City and lives in DC, so has had exposure all her life to art and material goodies.) She was quite enchanted.
Very good work. I'll bookmark your webpage and be in touch in the future. Thank you for being in the right place at the right time! :)
Hi, I'm Jackson, a high school kid from CO who just happened to come across your website. Your pottery is really awesome and though I have no interest in buying it (nor do I have money) I was wondering how you make the clay a certain color (under glaze??? somehow). I just wanted to know how you do it, and wanted to try it in my pottery class. I completely understand if you do not wish to reveal your colloring technique. If that is so, your pottery still ROCKS!!!
I did responded to tell him that we make colored clay with oxides and form the pieces with these colored clays mixed with our white clay and then use a clear glaze.
I really appreciated your customer service and responsiveness so I would like to buy something else from you.
I received my pottery today and I'm very happy with it. I do ceramics myself so I can appreciate the time you have in it. Thanks again,
WOW!Perfect arrival.the candle castslovely shadows around my Southwest living room here in Chicago.Thank you for prompt and honorable delivery.
I am late in responding. The pottery arrived on time and in perfect shape. My daughters loved their gifts and my husband and I are enjoying ours. Thank you again.
hey y'all...My pottery has arrived and has already found it's new home. I wanted to thank you for being so wonderful to us on our visit, and for making it so easy to own something I love. The hearts are perfect here in our world and look wonderful...
Thank you so much.

I recieved the order late last week, my wife is suitably impressed with your craftsmanship and my sentimentality. So looks like a job well done all round. The piece looks great and the way the shadows dance around the room is pretty cool. Once again thanks for everything, especially getting the piece to me on such a short turnaround time. I hope to do business with you again and would have no problem recommending you to friends and family.
Regards
I found your web site because I was checking to see who has links to our own site, ---------------. I clicked on your site to send an email thanking you for listing us on your links page and fell in love with your luminaries. I would like to order two, please.
I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how happy I am with the pottery my husband and I bought while we were visiting San Antonio last August. We purchased two pieces and they are displayed on our fire place mantel. They are gorgeous and we have received many complements on them. It is beautiful art and a reminder of our fun weekend get away in Texas. Keep up the good work!
Greetings! I just wanted to let you know that I received the spider web luminary yesterday, and it is absolutely gorgeous. I am so happy with your beautiful work and I truly hope to be able to acquire more pieces in the future. And thank you for such a good packing job, the luminary arrived in perfect condition. Thank you again, it has been a pleasure doing business with you. Have a great day.
Just wanted to let you know that I received the pottery on Monday and was able to give it to my boss today. She absolutely loved it. I appreciate your willingness to make it all white - she thought it would go perfectly in her house.
Thanks again!
The pottery arrived today, and all are just fine. The ladies in my office really like the pieces. Thanks for having pottery that is truly 'American' and from Texas.
Thank you! All the things I looked at that day and your lovely "candle holder" was all I wanted. I am a quiltmaker so I love and appreciate handmade gentle things... It will have a good home with me.
Thanks for the note.. I'm camping out by the door...
:)
I received the pottery yesterday. It is beautiful and in all one piece. Thank you so much. It looks awesome on our entertainment center.
I bought one of your Carved Luminary designs when I was in San Antonio. I use it all the time. I would like to order some more for my family at Christmas.
In an effort to locate pottery/clay supplies in the DFW Metroplex, I happened upon a link to your site with American Ceramics Supply. I am writing to applaud your site - it is the most useful site (for any product) I have run across in years. Your links to reference sources and other folk's products is phenomenal. Your own product information is easy to access, flows logically, photographed well, graphically pleasing, and effortless to obtain. Wow. Thanks. The bonus of fun and frivolity is also refreshing! With pleasure, I have seen your work at various shows. Absolutely beautiful. Your craftsmanship is inspirational.
About 60 years ago in college the ceramic department had a wheel and a man who knew how to use it. So when I got one of your luminaries as a gift from my son I had a glimmer of an idea of what it took to go from that to what you produce. Good work!
Receiving a gift of one of your luminary (carved around) with carved hearts that brings just delight to us in the evening watching the shapes around our fireplace, I simply had to let you know how very much your beautiful art is being enjoyed. Although I have never seen your pottery before, be assured we will in the future get more. Wishing you the good joy your talent brings to others!
thank you
Just wanted to let you know I received the candle holder earlier this week and it's in perfect shape. No chips or cracks during shipping. Thank you very much. I love it!
Just a short note to let you know that the UPS package containing the two Jim Smith luminaries arrived safe and sound this afternoon. They are absolutely beautiful, exactly what I wanted. The Jim Smith Society will be most appreciative. Thanks for taking the time to create this design for me and the Society. Wishing you continued success with your innovative pottery creations!
Greetings.Just to confirm all the boxes arrived safely in
