Jon Ellenbogen & Rebecca Plummer

Pottery

Jon Ellenbogen and Rebecca Plummer make stoneware pottery intended for daily use in the home. From dinnerware to centerpieces to bathroom and wetbar sinks, their attractive, durable, handmade objects add a unique personal touch to any decor.

Their Christmas ornaments and decorated eggs are a departure from their traditional stoneware. Because they are handmade, no two are alike, and all are very lightweight for hanging on a tree. For many families these ornaments have become cherished family heirlooms that will be passed on for generations.

Rebecca and Jon have been working together as Barking Spider Pottery for over thirty years. Their passive solar studio and home is built above the Toe River in the mountains of Western North Carolina.They have twin twenty-one-year-old sons Alexander and Christopher.
