Elizabeth (Libby) Berezin

Clay artist Elizabeth Berezin moved to Alaska with her husband in 1975 after completing a B.A. In literature.

Elizabeth makes wheel-thrown pottery and hand-built pottery of stoneware clay.  Much of her work is functional tableware, but she also enjoys constructing sculptures and wall pieces.  Though largely self-taught, she has attended college art classes and workshops with national and international clay artists.  Her work has placed in many local juried shows over the past twenty-five years.

The Gallery carries a large selection of her work- in many patterns and colors.  Individually built and fired each piece is a one of a kind, but sets may be collected in a variety of colors.  We have many more of her pieces in the Gallery, please call or email for particular styles and patterns.  If we don't have what you are looking for, we can order it for you.  Special orders are welcome, including complete sets of dinner ware.
