Bruce at work

Bruce Odell, who makes his home in Lafayette, LA, the heart of Cajun Country, has been sharpening his vision and skill at the potter's wheel since 1976.

After 15 years in the pottery business, Bruce entered the U.S. Pottery Olympics on a whim, and won this competition 3 years in a row.

In 1992 at the Tourney Mondial in Faenza, Italy, he became the first American to win the World Championship.
 
 

Gay Odell is a native of Acadiana with Cajun heritage and 5 generations of family all living in Lafayette.

After many years of business experience, she brings innovative organization to the creative chaos of the pottery studio.

Like most Cajuns, when they are not working hard in the pottery business, Bruce & Gay are playing hard through personal fitness, gardening, fishing, dancing, or family fun.
