Handmade with Love
Each piece in my shop is completely designed, handmade, finished and packaged, by me in my studio in South London. You can be sure every single piece of art is made with equal love and care.
How are they made?
All of our plates are hand-made and fired in the kiln two times, one for the clay at 980 degrees Celsius and one for the glaze again at 1220. This makes them strong and durable for everyday use. These plates are stamped on the base with our logo and after being fired for the last time sanded to ensure they're smooth and don't cause any scratches on furniture.
Due to the handmade nature, our ceramics may have small differences, but we love these as they show how the makers' hands have formed and finished each product.
All our ceramics are dishwasher, microwave, and freezer-safe.

OUR STUDIO
Our dinnerware is handmade in our studio in London, UK by a small team of potters. This is where we design, form, glaze, pack and ship our dinnerware to you or a restaurant near you.
OUR PRODUCTION PROCESS
We use many techniques to produce our dinnerware depending on the form. Jiggering, throwing and hand-building are the main ones. There are many steps involved in this process and we handle one piece many times till we fire it, pack it and ship it.
Each potter in our team is trained to produce beautiful dinnerware and each piece of dinnerware carries the marks of our fingerprints and is unique!
Our studio is equipped with 3 potter's wheels and 4 kilns that we fire daily .
OUR GLAZING PROCESS
We spray glaze our plates and bowls and dip or use a glaze pump for our cups and smaller pieces. Glazing is one the steps that takes a lot of practice to achieve a consistent result. After an item is glazed we sponge the rim to create a crisp cut between the clay and the glaze.
Every time we open our kiln we learn something new about our glazes and the process and every piece is unique on how it has interacted with the glaze during the firing.
THE FIRING PROCESS
Our dinnerware is fired at 1230 degrees Celsius. Made out of stoneware clay and fired at this temperature is what makes them durable and can last in commercial kitchens.
When we look through the peep hole of our kiln towards the end of the firing circle everything is red and bright as well as extremely hot. These high temperatures are required for the glaze to melt and for the plates to become durable!
During these high firing circles the clay shrinks between 4%-7% depending on the firing schedule as well as the position inside the kiln. These differences is what make the item handmade and unique and why we love them.

These differences are happening during the trimming process or even the firing process where the clay shrinks between 4%-7% depending on the firing schedule as well as the position inside the kiln. These differences is what make the item handmade and why we love them.
