Experienced gardeners welcome toads into their gardens as a natural pest control. The American toad will eat 50-100 critters every night, including slugs, flies, grasshoppers, and cutworms, and toad houses create the secure, dark, and damp habitat they prefer. This design features an applied vine accent and a textured surface to promote moss growth.
Anthony Stoneware has been handmade in the mountains of Western North Carolina for over fifty years using traditional techniques of wheel-throwing and slab construction. The work has a rugged feel, with quirky flourishes that elevate the artistic appeal. Glazes are custom-blended and reactive, so please expect and appreciate the variations that affirm the pottery's artisanal origin.
