Andersen Studio selected to be in Apartment Therapy's 2010 Great Holiday Giveaway

Apartment Therapy is a high profile home design and living blog, based in Tribecca, New York City and boasting a readership of over 4 million people. This will be a huge leap in exposure for the Andersen Studio online website.

Andersen Studio credits the online handcrafted website, Etsy, for providing the exposure which brought the ceramic art and design of Andersen Studio to the attention of Apartment Therapy. Etsy is a resource that online and offline publications rely on for new inspiration. It has proved to be a inexpensive and valuable resource for Andersen Studio, not only as a selling venue but for the invaluable exposure that Etsy provides. In addition, this year Andersen Studio redesigned their website with new images and text and have seen a growing and steady increase in online orders. Social networking is also working very well for the small ceramic art and design company that became a collectible through a grass roots movement from the day Weston and Brenda Andersen first opened their gallery, then known as "Ceramics by Andersen" in a two hundred year old barn on Southport Island, Maine. The year was 1952. Since then Andersen Studio's line of comtemporay functional forms and wild life sculptures have become highly identified with Maine and recognized internationally.

Mackenzie Andersen says "This is a great Christmas gift for us, which costs Apartment Therapy only the usual expense of publishing the blog, and gifts one of their viewers with of one of our most popular bowls. It's win-win all the way around- and an example of the innovative creativity that exists in the private economy."

Andersen Studio's Organic Ceramic Sea Urchin Bowl will be given away at 12:30 pm on the Friday after Thanksging, a day which is known as in the retail industry as "Black Friday" because it is traditionally the biggest sales day of the year. It will be featured on Apartment Therapy's ReNest blog.
