The studio

One wheel, one kiln, and a shelf that's always full.

I'm Jane. I make functional pottery in short runs, so a glaze you love might not come back exactly the same. That's the point — every mug carries the marks of the day it was made.

From the studio

Four steps, about three weeks, per mug.

Each form is centered and pulled on the wheel, then trimmed, bisque fired, and glazed to cone 6.

  1. Step 1

    Throw

    Each form is centered and pulled on the wheel from about a pound of stoneware.

  2. Step 2

    Trim

    Leather-hard pieces are flipped, trimmed for a clean foot, and handles are attached.

  3. Step 3

    Bisque

    A first firing to cone 04 turns clay into something that can hold glaze.

  4. Step 4

    Glaze & fire

    Dipped by hand, then fired to cone 6 so every piece is food- and dishwasher-safe.
