Each piece is hand-thrown on a potter’s wheel using White or Brown clay. In it’s green-ware stage, the piece is then left wrapped to begin a slow dry until leather hard.

Process Time: 1-2 Weeks

Once leather-hard, the bottom is then trimmed to add a foot and level the piece.

Finishing embellishments (such as decor or handles) are added and then it’s left for a final dry before Bisque Fire.

Sometimes glazing is done at this stage to be bisque fired.

Process Time: 1-2 Days

Each piece is placed in a Kiln for it’s Bisque Fire and fired at Cone 6 (which is approximately 2232°F (1220°C)!)

Bisque Firing hardens the clay into ceramic and creates porosity, ensuring glaze and underglazes bonds well to the surface.

Process Time: 1 Week

Each piece is then hand painted with lead free underglaze and then dipped in a clear coat to seal the clay for food safety.

Process Time: 1-2 Days

The piece is then fired again at Cone 6, bonding the underglaze and glaze to the ceramic; and in turn strengthening the piece.

Process Time: 1 Week
