"I tend to make things I like, things I'd like to have around me," says ceramist JoAnn Stratakos. Once the concept is in place, she uses her knowledge and expertise to guide each piece. In her Pocono Mountain studio, she creates one-of-a-kind glazes, giving her designs subtle variations and unique characteristics. The color and shapes are designed to complement, not compete. It's the impressive shapes and functionality that makes JoAnn's items truly special.

Lovely and practical mug

Perfect gift for a friend to whom I really do wish I lived closer. She loved it!


LOVE it and it's dishwasher and microwave safe! WHAT!??

I've wanted this mug for a long time b/c it's something my best friends and I say to each other alot. This year, I bought one for each of our birthdays. They absolutely love it and so do I!!!


so special, gave to my daughter.

It is well made and very pretty. On a few occasions I have sent my daughter touching coffee mugs and when I visit her, she always is drinking out of your precious mugs.


Loved the look and feel!

This mug is the perfect size and says exactly what I feel about my sister!


Keeping hearts close

Very sweet gift for ones who are far flung. I bought several to send to friends who love away from me


I bought a second one!

I loved this mug from the first time I saw it, put off buying because of the price, but the more I looked at it the more I realized it was well worth the cost. It was absolutely my favorite mug, the only one I used. Alas, after about two years it was broken in a freak accident. I was so distraught I wouldn't let anyone help me pick up the pieces. And I immediately ordered another one! This is a good sized mug, the tulip shape is wonderful, the houses perfect. And the message.. I wholeheartedly recommend this mug!


Purchased for a wonderful sister.

My sister has recently moved from Illinois to Georgia and l miss her a lot. We are both senior citizens and now we can visit only by phone.


Perfect gift for far away friend

My best friend ever since grade school (we are in our 70's now) lives in Michigan. I live in Georgia. we talk each month and text, but its not the same as talking in person. . I sure do wish she lived next door. There were some issues with shipping, which was not the fault of Uncommon goods. The customer service fellow was very helpful and when it seemed the package had been lost or misdirected, he sent a replacement overnight. In the end, she did receive both, and the return process with free shipping label was seamless. Thank you, uncommon goods, for helping me make my friend's day special.


This is the perfect gift for a friend who doesn't live close

One of my good friends lives several states away. I ordered this for her birthday, and she loves it.


Best Friend

I got this for my vest friend who lives in another state. She loved it !
