A hand thrown and turned, dark green glazed mug, fired in a reduction atmosphere. The darkest of my feldspathic glazes, this turns a bright metallic orange on the rims where the iron of the clay starts to bleed through.

Each pot is handmade, glazed and fired, so there will be slight differences between those pictured and those received, in terms of surface and dimensions—they’ll be mostly identical but, these differences are what I strive for in my work, so each piece has a sense of individuality. There can be specks of iron and bronze, (copper), in my work, that appear arbitrarily. The pot you receive may have more or less of these.

These pots are dishwasher safe and food safe, although please take care, washing by hand is the best option. All my pots are made with a high iron content clay body that is heavily reduction fired. This means that sharper edges can be susceptible to chipping if they’re bashed so please handle your pots with care. I personally always hand wash my handmade pottery and tend not to use them in microwaves. Remember, this isn’t mass produced factory ceramics, each pot is individual. Additionally, crackle glazes like this can stain naturally overtime with liquids such as tea or coffee. The pots themselves are highly vitrified and there’s nothing toxic or dangerous that can leach out from the crackle glazes. This is simply a byproduct of having such surfaces and you’ll find that crackle glazes, or crazing like this, can appear in wood fired pots, soda fired pots and salt fired wares too.
