"It doesn't surprise me that
seconds are not readily available for purchase for those outside of
Bennington. I am sure that my husband and I will eventually purchase your
12 piece dinnerware set. We just have to make enough room in our
cupboards first and get rid of our current set of dinnerware. Thanks for
the info on the annual July sale, it would make a fun trip. Again, thank you
for making such a quality product , it is a rarity these days! " Melinda B, OH |

There Were Rules of Course
There were at least a dozen of us who brought a large coffee mug to work instead of using the fragile paper ones stacked near the coffee maker. Hooks to hang the real mugs hung by the communal sink so that we could rinse and store our mugs conveniently. Someone started a contest to pick the most unique mug and rules were established. The mug had to be American made. The judges had to consider it unique. Choosing the perfect mug was a very important consideration. I didn't fret. Obviously this called for a trip to my favorite pottery shop – Bennington Potters - "American Made Stoneware Pottery" at its finest. A sure winner would be found there! I bought myself a blue agate trigger – their signature mug – a Tavernware tankard, and an American classic mug in a green glaze. The one I was sure was going to knock their socks off though was a very unique coffee mug with a pottery glaze called Mt. Equinox. Real arts and crafts pottery. Not only was I sure that it would win the contest for me, I also thought that it would be a great gift for 'my something small but cool' gift list. I ended up buying a dozen mugs that day! I almost felt guilty. The contest was already won.
