Bubba Jones Brew Cups
Bubba Jones Brew Cups was born on the wheel. Born from an innate need to make pots that were part of a group, pots that helped define culture, pots with a job, the way it used to be for all potters. Making every piece one at a time by hand on the potter's wheel and adding a hand pulled handle isn't the easiest, most efficient or most profitable way to make an object, but it does have a way of reflecting and recording the hand of the maker every time. The goal at BJBC is to employ great skill, craftsmanship and design in creating growlers and cups that feel real; connecting the maker to the user to the beverage. Somewhere in the confusion between what is art, what is craft, and our cult of personality we have lost this connection. Bubba is a type of “everyman” character trying to find it again.
