Sondahl Pottery

Love this place! We buy gifts for family here and we all seem to have our favorite colors.I like the way the shop is built around the trees and how you can serve yourself. There is a lot to appreciate about this place, and I always end up browsing longer than planned. Yesterday we went by to pick up some bowls and cups for gifts and I accidentally let a cat into the store. I didn’t know if she belonged there, so I put her back outside when we were done paying. She seemed right at home but I was worried she would break something. Oh, and in the warmer months sometimes they have fruit for sale.

Such an adorable little shop! Great work! Go see it if you are in Spirit Lake, Idaho. The bigger bowl is a fresh berry bowl. It has a few openings on the bottom to let the water drain from it, and a little curved plate to catch the water!

My husband and I love supporting local potters. Found this gem of a place and bought several beautiful bowls, cups, and a pitcher. My husband was shocked and honored at the self service option because it speaks highly about a community. We will definitely be back for more! Wonderful prices and beautiful craftsmanship, would love to meet the owner next time.

Awesome selection and variety of handmade pottery. I purchased a few bowls and took info for when I want some more for gifts. Beautiful quality! I've already gifted a fruit bowl for Christmas.

This is one of the most unique stores in North Idaho. The pottery is all made by the family who resides behind the store. It is beautiful pottery with some unique designs, but the most unique thing about the store is that it is an open-air store that utilities a self service/honor system of purchasing. To pay, you simply add up what you owe and drop it in a drop box inside the covered portion of the porch. Bring cash when you visit because you will want to take home a mug, a chicken roaster, a butter dish, a plant pot, a full set of bowls or dishes, or maybe even a hanging bird house.

The picture shows two butter dishes and a mug that I have purchased over the past few years. My next trip there I plan on getting a full set of mugs... They are big, man sized mugs that hold a lot of coffee! 😎

We like it that North Idaho is a place where people can trust each other; a place where honesty and trust can exist like this, so please, please *Honer the Potter* and pay the full price. Let's keep North Idaho the way it is for as long as we can!

Great little place to get local hand made pottery. Beautiful items, reasonably priced. I'm thrilled with my soap dispenser!

This is my favorite pottery shop!! Seems almost like the best kept little secret up in that area!! Super reasonable and amazingly beautiful pottery!!!

I love this place! I had seen it going to Sedlmayer Resort & Restaurant and looked to see what time it closed. 8pm! Outstanding! We could have dinner, look at pottery and support local artists. Many of the colors used were all my favorite colors in blues, greens and sand. Some were muted which I love but some had that great punch of color. I wonder how difficult it is to get such deep blues and greens. I picked out the pieces I wanted and looked around for someone to pay for them. It was self service! So cool! I know it is not a big deal for some but I loved that I was able to wrap up my items, place them in a bag, add up the prices, check against the list for total price (to include tax) and then run my credit card. You hardly ever get to practice the honor system. I loved many of the pieces on display especially the giant coffee mug and it was giant! It was tough but I settled for a smaller mug with beautiful abstract splashes that hinted at fish swimming and 2 bowls with almost similar coloring. I did not see the shelf of pottery by Alicia until it was too late. Next time I will head there first! I always want to encourage new and young artists! Thank you for your beautiful work and my first sales experience!

I found this place quite by accident last summer when exploring around CDA. I purchased gifts for many friends back home in New Mexico. I've been sent with a list on my visit this summer as everyone remarked about how gorgeous this pottery is! Very affordable.

Beautiful pottery. Fun self checkout. Will definitely stop in again, if in the area.

I contacted Brad at Sondahl Pottery as I have had a few of his pieces for better than 20 years. I recently broke a bowl and needed a replacement. Brad was prompt in response and custom made and shipped a replacement that is just beautiful. Great craftsmanship and outstanding customer service. Thanks!

Honor system shopping. How refreshing. I got a little sponge holder. Prices are very reasonable.

Love the honor system he has. He has great stuff to sell too. Bought some bowls, and storage pots that look awesome. Liven up my kitchen.

Beautiful pieces at great prices!

Beautiful pieces. Easy to shop and leave a payment. Love the vibe.

Such a great place all on the honor system. Met the owner and the dog Butter.. what a cute boy he was! Pottery is beautiful!

We have been back two years in a row. Our friends see our Sondahl pottery and want their own oiece. This year, we returned with a list!

Everything pottery that you ever wanted, expertly hand crafted by a real pottery Master! Everything is so cheap and a fun place to 'check out'

He makes great pottery. Good prices and it's a safe place to shop!

They have great pottery and if you go down the hill a bit there's a good driving/walking trails and a lake.
