Talent, imagination, skill, and experience all come together when artisan John Shedd works on his creations.
At his Hopewell studio, which he built in 2018, he starts the process: planning, designing, carefully taking it step by step, until ultimately bringing it to fruition as it is heated in the kiln.
Many of the finished items are then displayed at The Tomato Factory Antiques & Design Center, 2 Somerset Street in Hopewell, where he has had a gallery since 2017. Others have been commissioned and then presented to the recipient, whether an individual or organization.
As he comments, “While a great deal of my work now is commissioned, the bulk of the work is speculative or made for the trade. There is a little more freedom in making things that aren’t ordered.”

LONGTIME TOMATO FACTORY IN HOPEWELL OFFERS HISTORY
& AN ARRAY OF CHOICES
By Jean Stratton
What’s new? What’s old? What’s hot? What’s best?
Whatever it is, you can find it in Hopewell’s Tomato Factory, located at 2 Somerset Street. Long a favorite of customers from Princeton and beyond, it is a cooperative featuring 18 different shops all conveniently located under one roof.
“The Tomato Factory has become the place I go when I am looking for something specific, whether it be seasonal decor or a gift for a friend, but also somewhere to go when I have a day off. It’s a magical place. You don’t tell Tomato Factory what you’re looking for — it tells you!” says Caroline Noebels of Hightstown.
