Signage alert: Kalsang Pottery on 10th Street

Signage is up for Kalsang Pottery at 241 E. 10th Street on the NW corner of First Avenue.
This will be the first retail outlet for Kalsang Pottery, which has been selling its wares at various city markets for the past few years. 

Here's more about the owner, Kalsang Chomphel, who runs the business with his wife Tenzin Tseyang: 
I am a Tibetan Potter/Ceramicist based in Woodside, New York City. Having worked for many years as a jewelry maker for high-end jewelry brands in New York City, I finally found my calling in making and designing pottery. Kalsang Pottery products are all hand-thrown at potter's wheel and crafted in New York City in my small Woodside home studio. 

I make high-quality functional art pieces that can be used for everyday gastronomic pleasures and decorative home decor items that are visually pleasing and artfully therapeutic. 

He explains more about the evolution of Kalsang Pottery in this Instagram post...
 

The retail space was previously HeadQuarters, a smoke shop that sold things like magic mushroom candy bars.
