About Bob's Pottery

 

Welcome to Bob’s Pottery! I’m Bob Presley, a retired art teacher turned full-time potter based in Chino Hills, California.

 

My journey into pottery is fueled by a lifelong passion for art and a deep appreciation for the intricate textures and shapes found in nature. Inspired by the beauty often hidden in everyday natural elements—leaves, pods, branches, and tropical plants—I transform these organic forms into hand-crafted pottery that brings nature’s elegance to your home.

 

Each piece I create is a blend of art and science, capturing the details of natural growth stages and textures.

 

My custom mugs are designed to provide a unique, sensory experience as you enjoy your favorite drink. I hope they inspire you to pause, savor, and discover the beauty in small, overlooked details of nature.

 

Explore my collection and bring a piece of nature-inspired art into your daily life. Whether it’s a custom mug or a decorative piece, each item at Bob’s Pottery is crafted with care, purpose, and a touch of natural wonder.
