No, we don't use any lead or cadmium in any of our glazes.

As with any fine handmade item, hand washing is recommended! However, we do know customers that frequently place their pottery in dishwashers. If you want to, it's up to you.

Please remember:

Dishwashers also cause a common problem of chipping from glazed surfaces knocking against each other.

Yes, you can use any of our products in an oven or microwave but please remember these simple guidelines when doing so.

- Our pottery is ceramic earthenware. It is porous and it will trap moisture. Therefore, extreme care should be taken as the pottery can get VERY HOT and will stay hotter for longer.

- Allow pottery to heat up gradually i.e. warm up prior to use, warm pieces to room temperature after removing from the refrigerator, don't place cold wares in hot water.

- Allow hot pottery to cool down slowly i.e. don't place hot wares in cold water.

- If using in an oven, do not heat up the oven and place a cold piece of ware into it. Allow the ware to gradually heat up with the oven.

- All our products are made to order specially for you. They take up to two weeks to ship. If you need us to put a rush on your order please let us know and we'll do our best so you can get it on time.

Yes, all our items are handmade in a pottery wheel and later hand painted and glazed.

We love creating pieces for our customers. Please contact us with your idea and we'll try to make it happen

Pottery costs between $16 and $75 per piece, with many of our customers' favorite pieces (like mugs, plates and animals) in the $25 to $35 range. Prices include the pottery pieces, use of our studio and supplies, glazing and firing.Text

Most people spend about 1½ hours at the studio. Plan on less time if you have young kids or are making a simple project, more time if you're with a large group or working on something with lots of detail.

Your potttery is ready to pick up in about one week from the day you paint it. We will hold finished pieces for 30 days.

All pieces that are covered in clear glaze are are non-toxic and safe to use with food.

Not to worry! We have stamps, stickers, sponges, and stencils to help.

Unfortunately, due to quality issues we cannot glaze and fire pottery that was not purchased at our studio.

We're sorry, we are unable to fire clay projects that were not created with the materials we provide. A kiln fire voucher will be needed for firing and Pottery to GO Kit.
