Windy Meadows Pottery Library House by Jan Richardson

This charming Windy Meadows Pottery “Library” house is a handcrafted stoneware village piece designed and built by Jan Richardson, founder and primary artist of Windy Meadows Pottery. Known for her storybook-style architecture and warm, earthy glazes, Richardson’s houses are highly collectible and beloved for their folk-art charm and craftsmanship.

This piece features a richly textured shingle roof, heart-cutout details, and a raised “Library” plaque on the front façade. The neutral stone and brown glaze palette gives it a timeless, cozy feel that works beautifully in both seasonal displays and year-round shelving. Designed in Windy Meadows’ signature salt box–style house form, it includes a rear opening typical of these functional yet decorative pottery pieces.

A wonderful addition for collectors of Windy Meadows Pottery, miniature village displays, or anyone drawn to handcrafted architectural ceramics with nostalgic New England character.
