About Us

Just Art Pottery, led by longtime collector and expert Greg Myroth, is a family-owned business with a proud 30-year history specializing in vintage and collectible art pottery, ceramics, and decorative arts. Since the beginning, we have served as a trusted destination for both buyers and sellers seeking a knowledgeable, reliable, and reputable partner in the marketplace.

Greg’s passion, extensive experience, and hands-on approach guide everything we do. Whether you need professional appraisal and valuation services, assistance with nationwide pickup, or careful, expert packing and transportation, our team ensures a smooth, secure, and stress-free process from start to finish.

Over the decades, our personalized service has helped us build lasting relationships with a global base of collectors, estates, dealers, and institutions. Many of our clients return year after year, relying on our honesty, integrity, and deep expertise. We are honored to have been entrusted with the sale and stewardship of countless important collections—from single pieces to multi-estate consignments.

Just Art Pottery has earned a respected reputation for professionalism and proven results, consistently achieving high sell-through rates and record-setting prices across the industry. Our commitment to accuracy, transparency, and client care remains at the core of everything we do.

Building on this foundation, Crafted Auctions was created to serve a broader market. Today we handle not only art pottery and ceramics, but also fine art, antiques, jewelry, art glass, décor, collections, and specialty estate items across many categories. Whether selling a single item, a curated collection, or an entire estate, we focus on honest valuation, strong presentation, and a streamlined consignment experience.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide a trusted, professional platform for selling quality property across multiple collecting categories. Whether you are a collector, an heir, a dealer, or handling an estate, we aim to make the process straightforward, transparent, and rewarding.

• Offer research-backed evaluations and accurate market insights.
• Present each piece with high-quality photography and detailed descriptions.
• Provide a smooth, fully managed consignment process from intake to payment.
• Build lasting client relationships rooted in honesty, care, and communication.

Our Expertise

While our origins are in art pottery, our experience covers a wide range of categories, including fine art, antiques, jewelry, glass, Americana, advertising, designer pieces, mid-century objects, and specialty collectible fields. We understand what drives value—authenticity, rarity, maker, artistic merit, condition, provenance, and timing—and we apply that expertise to every item entrusted to us.

Our team has evaluated thousands of pieces over the decades, working with everything from early American decorative arts to modern studio works, estate jewelry, fine paintings, bronzes, figural objects, and entire lifetime collections. We are skilled in identifying important makers, attributing unmarked works, spotting restoration, and understanding how to present items to the strongest buyer base.

Beyond cataloging and photography, we assist with estate planning, collection downsizing, private sales, and tailored auction strategies. Whether you have a single high-value item or an extensive multi-category collection, we provide guidance that is clear, honest, and rooted in decades of market knowledge.

Why We Stand Out

Curated Auctions: Our sales focus on quality over quantity. Instead of overwhelming catalogs with thousands of items, we curate auctions that highlight unique pieces across diverse categories.

Multi-Category Buyers: Our audience includes collectors, decorators, designers, investors, dealers, and institutions. This broad reach ensures your items are seen by the right buyer group.

Full-Service Management: We handle cataloging, photography, marketing, invoicing, shipping, and settlement in-house—providing accuracy, consistency, and care at every stage.

Transparent Terms: No hidden fees, no surprises. We explain the entire process up front and keep communication open throughout the consignment timeline.

Proven Results: High sell-through rates, strong prices, and years of repeat clients reflect our dedication to honest representation and exceptional service.

Our Team

Crafted Auctions is led by a dedicated team with decades of combined experience across art, antiques, jewelry, decorative objects, and estate collections. Greg brings extensive decorative-arts knowledge and long-standing expertise. Sean contributes experience across antiques, fine art, jewelry, estate work, and multi-category evaluation. Lana provides responsive, helpful support to consignors and buyers, ensuring communication is always clear and timely.

Each member of our team handles the material entrusted to us with care, accuracy, and respect. From cataloging and photography to marketing and logistics, we approach every step with professionalism and attention to detail. We recognize that many items have both financial and emotional significance, and we work hard to honor that responsibility.

Our size allows us to remain agile and personal. You will always know who is working with your items, who to contact with questions, and how your consignment is progressing. That level of personal attention and consistency is one of the biggest reasons so many clients trust us year after year.

Join the Journey

Whether you are refining a collection, managing an estate, or exploring options for selling fine art, jewelry, antiques, decorative objects, or collectibles, we welcome the opportunity to help. We are happy to review photos, discuss options, and recommend the best path forward.

Our goal is to make the process smooth, respectful, and rewarding—no pressure, no confusion, and no obligations beyond what works best for you.
