160 N Main St, Rutherfordton“A great place to find unique, cool, and artsy gifts. Love the small-company products and expert framing services. The people are so friendly! A must-shop in this cute Western NC town.”
“Banfield has the most uniquely made pottery I have ever seen. I'm not sure of the exact science of it, but each piece has the remains of distilled whiskey from our local distillery, Defient Whiskey. That is what I believe gives it its unique brown coloring. He makes everything from lamps, candle holders, sundials, praying hands, even a cool indoor water fountain. Tom is one of the most friendliest guys you will ever meet. I never miss the opportunity to stop in and chat. He is very involved with the local business community. I now have three beautiful pieces and am looking to add more to my collection. He shares his cozy shop with other local artists and this is a must stop and check out the art and strike up a conversation with Tom. You will not be disappointed.”
“What a neat little shop filled with local art. Sarah was incredibly friendly and helpful and showed us around. My daughter is really interested in trying a kids class there sometime. She won't be able to do one on this trip to the area but we will definitely be back when in the area again!”
