After visiting the incredible Cobble Hill cottage of Brooklyn-based potter and former rock chick Paula Greif, we drove to her studio for a peek at her latest work. I love the blue-and-white pieces, on sale at Beautiful Dreamers (326 Wythe Ave., at S. First St., Williamsburg; 718-388-4884). Photo: Wendy Goodman

Greif makes small batches of pottery, and it sells out fast. Over at Beautiful Dreamers, her latest pieces are already catching the eye of collectors. Photo: Wendy Goodman
