Brenda Lee Barron is passionate about sharing her love of clay. Brenda loves to make functional items (wheel and handbuilding) to be used at your table whether it's a meal for 1 or a gathering of 21. She is drawn to minimalist design because Brenda wants what you're serving to be showcased on the white speckled plates, platters and bowls.
