Ceramics Firing Service

Ceramics firing on individual pieces is available on request. In keeping with our courses, we are working with stoneware only and midrange glazes (1220–1260 degrees/cone 6). If you have not used one of our glazes, we are happy to offer a test tile with your chosen glaze to see if it works with our kiln.  
 
Turnover time for your pieces depends on studio capacity and changes regularly.
