When I opened my doors two short years ago, I had lots of expectations for starting a pottery and outdoor décor business. A recent graduate of Southern Methodist University, with a life time of experience in the Mexican import business, I was reentering a business that my parents had ran successfully for twenty some odd years before my mother’s passing. In those years growing up in their business, I learned important lessons that influence my expectations for Old World Pottery.
Better Selection: At Old World Pottery, I will not have a large volume of identical products at prices befitting a discount warehouse, but I will have a large selection of uniquely hand crafted products by various artist at prices that are commonly half the price of my peers in large metropolises like Dallas and Houston. My pottery and outdoor décor are carefully selected by me and my father, as we value its uniqueness as well as its durability. In addition to carrying pottery and garden art from Mexico, we also carry stone work and iron work made in the United States, from California, Kansas, and North Carolina.
Better Quality: The unique styles, the care from and high standards of the artists, and the quality material contribute to the durability of my products and how they handle the extreme weather. Whether it’s terra-cotta clay, stone work, or ironwork, we pay attention to how it handles the heat and cold, while providing you information on how to maintain them for many years to come.
I’m not Wal-Mart or any other "big-box" store. I do not seek to be apart of a world revolved around buying large volumes and selling at discount prices. I’m not some random business off the side of the highway or at flea markets. I’m not in the business of buying random junk. I enjoy traveling and hand picking beautiful pieces of garden art. I prefer learning about where they come from, the history behind it, and how it is made. Lastly, I prefer to use this information to educate my clientele so that they are knowledgeable about picking out the best pots and maintaining them for seasons to come. My prices are set, but I always find ways to help customers receive a better deal through free delivery (within Wichita Falls city limits) or discounts for buying multiple pieces.
Visit me at my location at 2306 Jacksboro HWY, by Sullivan Toyota across from the Flying J Truck stop. I’m also located on the internet. Visit my Facebook page at Old World Pottery, and check out my webpage: www.oldworldpottery.blogspot.
Better Selection, Better Quality, Old World Pottery
Sincerely,
Saul Ramos
