Felicia and Chad seem very keen to make sure the customer gets the right product at a reasonable price. We have shopped at Mississippi Mud for more than 20 years. Just like the prior owners, they seem like good business people.
I wanted to stop by MMP at Grafton, IL, for many, many months. Finally, I did pull off the highway and visited the store. I liked the authentic and creative pottery wares. However, I expected greater variation in the art works offered throughout the 2-story building. Apparently what I saw on the shelves and walls is what sells best and fast to tourists. Or, maybe the higher-end ($$$$) and one-of-a-kind Mississippian pottery was already sold. I dunno. Ill stop by again in 2022 and see whats changed.
Beautiful craftsmanship, we ordered a full canister set and cant wait to fill in the pieces!
Despite growing up in Godfrey, I never went to this place until two years ago. Ive been four times and every time I have bought at least one item. Beautiful pottery in an assortment of styles with an understated section of photos and prints.
Amazing! I always go there for my Pottery, love the unique peices they have!
Staff are helpful and they have many unique styles. A good place to select a handmade gift.
Super helpful and informative on a project I am working on, and their items that they make in shop are beautiful, I will be back for all my pottery needs.
Beautiful pieces of pottery, all made by local artists. Large selection of pottery pieces, local photographic prints, etc. Definitely worth a visit!
Wonderful service. Quality pottery, Friendly people.
Love this place. The owners are awesome. Love the selection of items. Really fun seasonal options. I shop here every time Im in town!
Wonderful staff making and selling cool pottery, dishes, mugs, and other stuff. I had a mug from there and loved it dearly. Until my roommate broke it into about 30 shards. Cant wait til I get back up to Alton and buy another one.
Cute place
The Legendary Mustang Sanctuary loves Mississippi Pud Pottery.... amazing are and treasures for all and two adorable greeter pups... a great place to shop for very special gifts.
My husband surprised me with a handmade tea pottery cup set of 4 - in the bluest ocean cerulean hue...after nearly 20 years residing here, we are moving to Hawaii and these little cups will forever remind us of our river home. They are cherished. The staff here are wonderfully creative and I love knowing they are part of our Alton community.
Lovely staff, very friendly, didnt have what i was interest in, so they will make and ship for me. So many styles to choose from! It is good to support local artisans and improve the day to day beauty in your life.
This is a great secret of Alton 😳 Anyone who enjoys pottery should visit. From the practical, to whimsical, to more of a sculptural/art feel, their potters put out a little bit of everything. And it seems like there is always something new to capture the attention.
Are you looking for a gift? Do you live in the Metro East? Drive to Mississippi Mud Pottery! Their work is beautiful, hand crafted, and each piece of pottery is unique. You can always find gifts at any price point: from wind chimes to large serving platters, wine chillers for your Mom’s patio to that perfect Christmas wax melt for your gift exchange! The artists have plenty of other local artwork for sale, if pottery is not what you are after. Shop local! Check it out!
Love this pottery shop! Staff are very welcoming. Their items are beautiful and unique! I always make it a (must stop by)when I’m in the area!
If you want an amazing variety of creative, beautifully made pottery items to choose from, this is the place! They have it all from awesome utilitarian pieces to fun and funky clay art. This unique gallery-studio is well worth a trip to downtown Alton!!
We custom ordered a kitchen utensil holder that matches our beautiful mugs and soon holders also made by Mississippi Mud Pottery. Not only is it perfect, since we had it custom made, we could make it bigger than most. We love it. True artists.
Mississippi Mud is a great family owned pottery business. Felicia and Chad are truley artists with very unique pieces! Their fish pottery is special and better than a taxidermy mount.
