Simple, with a country quick-step in its design, each piece is homey without being completely out of date. Lisa Jones, the founder of Pigeon Toe pottery, creates [each piece by hand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-buco-vita-x-commune-design) in the town of Portland. The Pigeon Toe Spring 2010 collection stays true to its quaint nature, with hints of color and clean lines. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Handcrafted Ceramics:** Opportunity to explore traditional craftmanship with modern design aesthetics - **Local Sourcing:** Opportunity to create supply chain transparency and support local communities - **Sustainability in Pottery:** Opportunity to utilize environmentally friendly materials and production methods ### Who This Affects Most - **Artisanal Ceramics:** Opportunity to differentiate with unique and personalized handmade products - **Home Decor:** Opportunity to create natural, rustic, and eco-friendly pottery pieces for home interiors - **Sustainable Manufacturing:** Opportunity to create eco-friendly and socially responsible production methods with locally sourced materials ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Playful Ceramic Forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beginner-ceramics.md) - [Repurposed Studio Scrap Pottery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daon-pottery.md) - [Stunning Sustainable Pottery Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-pottery.md) - [Modern Poertic Ceramics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virginia-sin.md) - [Innovative Ceramic Tableware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-tableware1.md) - [Experimental Pottery Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourd-project.md) - [Hand-Painted Ceramic Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handpainted-ceramic-collections.md) - [French Form Ceramics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doux-collection.md) - [Handmade Modern Ceramics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-gunia-project.md)
