About my work

I'm Allie Reinecke, a potter based in northern Illinois. I create functional, unique stoneware pottery in my garage studio. I make drinkwear, decorative vases, and the occasional tablewear.

I am a self-taught potter and my pieces are primarily wheel-thrown. I strive to make pottery that can withstand daily use, while providing an engaging experience with the user through interesting forms and glazes.

I reside near Rockford, IL and I grew up in the Baraboo hills in south central Wisconsin. Like my Midwest upbringing, my pottery is practical and and inspired by natural forms around me.

I hope that my pottery can provide a little moment of a joy and connection in the user's daily life.
