glaze
Our patina glaze is a bright green with tints of granny smith and juniper. Where it’s applied thin it becomes translucent and because of the white clay underneath it will show a bit more brown like olive.
These items are fired twice. The first time is called the bisque firing which turns the clay into ceramic at 950°C. After the bisque firing the items are glazed and fired again to 1245°C which vitrifies the clay and melts the glaze ingredients to give the item extra strength and protection.
general
All our pottery is handmade. As a result the actual items you will receive will be slightly different. There may be slight deviations in form and or color due to the multi-step process that ultimately makes each item unique.
As a maker I embrace this uniqueness rather than deliberately trying to make each item as identical as possible. If you are not comfortable with this, I suggest looking at our WYSIWYG items. They are “ what you see is what you get “ so you’ll know you get exactly what is shown in the pictures.
These items are food safe and dishwasher safe. It should be noted however that a dishwasher is a harsh environment so handwashing is still the best option.
