Bauer Pottery T-Shirts

Small "Orange Ink Stamp" logo on front side.

If you've been to a recent Showroom sale, you may have seen the Bauer employees wearing t-shirts with the company logo on the back.

We've been selling those shirts at the sale, but are thinking of offering them via the web site.

We have them in several different colors and sizes.




The back side bears the company's "Oil Jar" logo surrounded by three rings.




Over the left breast on the front side we have made a version with the "Orange Ink Stamp" logo (top of this post) or with the "Highland California" text (above).

Let us know what you think. Which style to you like best? Which colors would you like to see?

Scenes from the May 2010 Showroom Sale

About 30 Bauer fans were ready and waiting when the showroom doors opened at 10am...


...and the rush was on!


We had plenty of bowls available this month.


Bauer demis for all you espresso drinkers!
(We haven't added them to the web site yet, so call us if you'd like to order.)


Janek waits for his lunch order from the Patty Wagon.


They serve up great sliders and fries. All the beef is from 100% grass fed cattle and the fries are made from organic potatoes. Try the fries with garlic and rosemary.


At the end of the day we celebrated Owen's birthday with carrot cake. Short on birthday candles, Owen blew out one of the few remaining American Bee candles.

What's that you say? You love the American Bee candles and you want more? Well, stay tuned...

May Showroom Sale Preview

Since we made you wait an extra week between the March and April sales, we've decided to shave off one week between the April and May sales. That means the next Showroom Sale is this coming weekend, May 1st and 2nd!

If you've been waiting to pot your flowers and balcony vegetable gardens until you got just the right piece, may we suggest you peruse our selection of garden pieces available in sizes from small to pretty darn large.

Thinking about heading outdoors for Spring bar-b-ques and back yard parties? Well, you're going to need some some bright new serving pieces to complement the beautiful weather. We've got everything you're looking for and more.


Continuing in our series of visiting food trucks, this month we've go the Patty Wagon stopping by with their delicious, 100% grass-fed beef sliders and some of the best fries we've had lately.

Patty Wagon will be "doors up" starting at 11am on Saturday only.

If these pictures don't do it for you, take a look at their menu and try to control the drooling til the weekend.

10" Luncheon Plate

Dinner Plate in Bauer Yellow, Luncheon Plate in Parrot Green, Salad Plate in Bauer Orange

While our 11 Inch Dinner Plate is a great piece of dinnerware, it can be a bit overwhelming for the average person. Reasonably-sized portions are dwarfed in this huge disk. Additionally, many people have found that our standard dinner plate will not fit in their kitchen cabinets, not if they want to close them anyway.

Enter the 10 Inch Luncheon Plate.



One wouldn't think that that one inch would make that much of a difference, but it does. In addition to being slightly smaller around than the Dinner Plate, the Luncheon Plate is not as deep as its curvaceous bigger sister.



The Luncheon Plate is available now via our online store and retails for $26.00.

Berry Bowls galore.


Sugars, Tumblers, Platters, Butter Dishes, Carafes...





Owen puts on some last minute finishing touches before we open.


Bauer fans line up before we open. The earliest arrivals were at the door over an hour before our 10am opening time!


Seconds after 10am...


This month's truck comes from Fairfax Avenue's own Canter's Delicatessen.

See you all next month!

April Showroom Sale & Canter's Truck

So, everyone's had a chance to rest up after the Spring holidays and break, right? Well, not over here at the Bauer factory. We know that you all are going to be knocking down our doors come this weekend's Showroom Sale, so we've been busy preparing.

As usual, we'll have a large assortment of Bauer Pottery and Russel Wright^® American Modern^TM available at a great discount. We'll also be taking orders on pieces from the Bauer collection for Home By Sunset (firsts only).



If you've been to the last few showroom sales, you probably had a chance to sample food from one of L.A.'s newest culinary trends, the nouveau food truck. We've had visits from Kogi BBQ, the Grilled Cheese Truck, the Buttermilk Truck and Get Shaved.

This Saturday, we're excited to have the brand new Canter's Delicatessen Truck stopping by the showroom. Canter's is an old name in L.A. restaurants, but a new one on the road. They will be offering a selection of your favorite sandwiches from Canter's as well as some sides and matzo ball soup!

We're looking forward to seeing you all this weekend!
