Frequently asked questions.

SHOULD I EXPECT VARIATION IN PIECES?

My ceramics are made by hand in small batches and often show the makers marks.  Due to the nature of this process and use of natural materials, please be aware there may be small variations to sizes, shape and glaze finish between pieces and between batches.

CAN CERAMIC POTTERY GO IN THE MICROWAVE AND?OR OVEN?

Yes all my ceramics are microwave and oven safe. They are designed for everyday use. So please heat and enjoy your handmade pottery with confidence. Remember they have been fired to at least 1230 degrees Celsius. They will happily tolerant a household appliance.

CAN CERAMIC POTTERY GO IN THE DISHWASHER?

All my ceramics are dishwasher safe, however I advise to hand wash them in warm soapy water.  Glaze is effectively glass so can go cloudy over time, like all good things, just give them some tender loving care.

WHAT KIND OF GLAZES DO YOU USE?

I use a combination of commercial glazes and I have recently embarked of the journey of making my own glaze. All of which are tested and contain no toxic ingredients.

DO YOU THROW YOUR WORK ON THE WHEEL OR IS IT HANDBUILT?

I do a combination of both but the majority is thrown on my trusty Gladstone Bailey wheel.

DO YOU DO COMMISIONS?

I would consider small commissions. Please email me to discuss. 

WHAT IF MY ORDER ARRIVES DAMAGED?

If your pottery arrives damaged, please contact me as soon as possible with photographs of the damage and I will work to resolve the issue.

CAN I PREORDER?

Unfortunately not, but please feel free to contact me to discuss.

DO YOU DO POTTERY LESSONS?

My plan is this year to start doing beginners lessons, so watch out on my social media. I will sell the lessons her on my website.
