Pot of Gold is a one of a kind combination of pottery and weaving made from
natural materials found on the shores of McClellanville, South Carolina.

This intricate piece of art was created by Georgette Sanders, a self-taught spiritual artist.
Her unique forms of art are collected and displayed in private homes and in
public museums throughout seven continents.

“I find being aware of the alignment between form, perspectives, colors, and textures
sometimes act as a guide to my creative decision. Sometimes the artistry can have
a deep spiritual impact on the viewers and owners even though I am completely
oblivious to this quality during the process of creation.”

Georgette’s artwork can be found at ByHisDesignLegaciesTiedByNature.com
