Pyromania Pottery is a gift store featuring the works of five local potters as well as nature photography and art glass.
Coombs is a must visit when on Vancouver Island. Amazing location for several places to visit. Pyromania Pottery has reasonably priced items from locals. Also for the more serious collector higher priced items! I have participated several of their “glaze your own item” workshops every second Saturday early spring and on (just check out Facebook and website for dates and book a time) It is a popular event! You select an item like a sea star or horse, fish, vase or heart shaped pouch. Pay for your item. Staff demo the glaze Colors and then you make your own choices to apply and create. Then it is fired while you watch and enjoy visiting with other participants and Staff. Homemade cookies and coffee is provided. The Raku Pottery process/experience is an interesting one. Dress warmly as you are outside and good footwear for standing either on the porch or on gravel or lawn and it can take awhile. Also stay back as the kiln is extremely hot!!! Watch and be amazed as you see your item come alive with the result of your glazes when fired! Best part of all you take it home with you! Plan a few hours and definitely book your time! If you aren’t satisfied don’t forget there is a delightful shop so you can always purchase a similar item lol! Make a day of it and visit the other shops and Coombs Country Store, antiques and Cuckoos Restaurant to name a few all along Alberni Hwy. between Parksville and Qualicum Beach. Looking forward to next Saturday March 10, 2018 my first of the season to make some more Raku. I enjoy the experience. Bringing another friend to share this event with! I make items for gifts for friends that visit us on the island. Highly recommend making the time to do this. If you’re visitnf extra special to give away something you made while being on the island! You might get a time as a walk in and if you can’t items are for sale! Enjoy!

Definitely a stop when visiting Coombs B.C. Delightful staff makes browsers welcome anytime! Helpful and very knowledgeable about the artwork. Price points range greatly and can be also very quality high end works. Displays and photos of custom work done to view. If you have any interest in Aboriginal art this is an excellent shop. We visit often and take friends and visitors for a look! Worth the stop. Easy access off Alberni Highway. Near many other shops and restaurants. Enjoy. Thank you for your warm welcome!

If you are going to Coombs to see Goats on the Roof - don't miss Red Door Treasures just a few metres away . If you are a collector of anything , it may even be worth your while to make a trip here to check out the elusive piece you have been searching for or just to check the range of various collectibles. Be it Coca Cola merchandise , vintage kitchen or nautical themed items , military paraphernalia, photography equipment, toy cars and trains, dolls , ceramics , glassware , beer steins, teapots and teacups and much much more - you'll find It here !! Just walking through the store is an experience in learning about collectibles! Kudos to the owner for the curation of his store and his extensive inventory .
