Many of the first area potters were English and German immigrants who produced primarily functional, glazed pottery. Due to the high quality of the local clay, the Plank Road passing through the town, and the railroad, Seagrove grew into a destination for pottery shoppers. 2513 NC Hwy 705, Seagrove 336-879-3040 As a result of the Industrial Revolution and the advent of modern food preparation, the popularity of Seagrove pottery rapidly decreased during the mid 1800s. For a time, whiskey jugs were a successful source of income, but the beverage was outlawed and potteries continued their decline into the 1900s. Handmade pottery tiles and mosaics; custom installations The potteries struggled until around 1920, when they became popular with Northern tourists visiting nearby Pinehurst. The new tourist industry marked a general change from utilitarian pottery to the addition of more decorative ware. 26 A. R. Britt Pottery After another decline from the 1950s through 1970s a renewed interest in traditional pottery was beginning to sweep the area. In 1982, local citizens, recognizing the strength of preserving the history and heritage of their craft, began to celebrate annually the weekend before Thanksgiving by organizng the Seagrove Pottery Festival. The festival weekend has now grown to include both the Seagrove Pottery Festival and the Celebration of Seagrove Potters. Today Seagrove is known as the self-proclaimed pottery capital of the world where artisans create handcrafted pottery made in the same tradition that began here more than 200 years ago. With nearly 100 shops and galleries scattered throughout the area, you’ll find everything from traditional tableware to collectible art pieces.

Seagroves, a local official responsible for routing the railroad through the area. According to local sources, after a unanimous decision to name the railroad station after Seagroves, the town name resulted from a sign painter running out of space and simply dropping the “s” from the end of the name. The railroad served Seagrove until December 31, 1951. The old train depot later became a pottery museum. 55 Wood fired traditional and contemporary pottery Chinese red, blue, patina, green and copper penny 2199 NC Hwy 705, Seagrove 336-879-2262 Tue – Sat 10 am – 5 pm;
