Satin Yellow
Developed by Ben Owen III in late November 2025, the Satin Yellow glaze brings an enticing warmth to any setting. The matte finish radiates understated elegance, while a dense iron-oxide application generates delicate micro-crystalline formations across the surface—inviting touch as much as sight. Subtle rust-orange undertones emerge through the glaze breaks, echoing the intensity of traditional wood-firing techniques. Bringing an inviting depth that captures the heart of wood firing - high reward from high effort - Satin Yellow is a new favorite for collectors.

In addition to crafting work for the Pottery, Silas continues to create his own ware, focusing on stoneware pieces rendered unique through the raw unpredictability of atmospheric firings.
A native North Carolinian, Silas Bradley grew up in Clinton and discovered his passion for clay at a young age. Beginning his first apprenticeship at age 16 in Burgaw, NC, Silas immersed himself in the world of clay. This time exposed him to a wide variety of methods and techniques that sparked the development of Silas’ own voice in clay. Having worked in Texas and Montana making pots, Silas settled back in his home state to work further with the practices and traditions of Seagrove.
Silas is part of a new generation of North Carolina potters, eager to converse with longstanding traditions of craftsmanship while paving the way for new creations; with deep respect for tradition, Silas crafts pieces that evoke history and practice.
