Your New 'Neighbours Pine Ridge Pottery = In business, so the saying goes, there is nothing quite like planning ahead. When Gordon Curnow went into the pottery business ten years ago in Etobicoke, he picked the name Pine Ridge Pottery with the full intention of some day setting up business in this area. He didn't think it would take-ten years to make the . move. But >n August 1, he opened new premises on Highway 7A just west of Nestleton. Mr. Curnow, who is in partnership with his sister 'Beth, told the Port Perry Star last week that they are still setting up the production area and retail shop. He: added; however, that business has been _opening. Once everything is ready they plan to-hold an open house, possibly by the middle of October. The company will manufacture about 25,000 pieces of clay pottery in 100 different designs and six colours this - year. . And this number could increase to 40,000 next year.- Most will be shipped to retailers across Canada, and some are destined for a gift shop in Hamilton, Bermuda. To fill the orders for the pottery, Mrs. E. LeMiere and her son Tom, from Caesarea, have " recently been hired as full time employees. "Mr. Curnow says that two new colours have been developed, silver fox and gold mink, and the pieces finished in these colours will be marketed under 'the appropriate name of Nestleton Pottery. Mr. Curnow was formerly in the venetian blind business, and he said he didn't know anything about pottery when he started ten years ago ina small room in Etobicoke with one kiln and "many, many headaches." The new premises has four kilns, which bake the clay figures at temperatures as high as 2,000 degrees F. : This week the partners will be at the National Gift Show in Toronto where they will have some 600 pieces on display. It is an important week for them, as the show is open only to buyers from retail stores, and the competition for orders will be keen. They are hoping that the distinctive colours of the new Nestleton Pottery figures will prove to be popular with customers across the country. CORRECTION: In last week's edition, we mistakenly stated that Alex Shoe Repair is on Water Street. The shop is located on Perry Street across from the Municipal Offices.
