Notes

From the bench.

Short notes on firing, glaze, and what we keep.

The kiln

We fire once a week, and not always.

A kiln is a commitment. We load it when the shelves are full, not when the calendar says so.

Surface

Glaze is a conversation with the last firing.

The same bucket never looks the same twice. We keep notes, then ignore half of them.

Studio note

Seconds are not a sale. They are honest.

A hairline, a wobble, a glaze that ran. We mark them and price them as what they are.
