Jeff Diehl
 “I want my pots to be appealing to your hand, heart, and eye. I strive for beauty in function!”
Jeff Diehl is the third potter from his family in four generations. He served four years as an undergraduate apprentice and one as a graduate apprentice in the Berea College Ceramic Apprenticeship Program, Berea, Kentucky. Diehl has studied and taught both nationally and internationally. His work has been exhibited extensively, predominantly in the eastern United States and Korea. In 1980, Diehl established Lockbridge Pottery, a functional–stoneware studio where he continues to work and live in Meadow Bridge, West Virginia.
