In the studio

Four drops a year, never more.

Every piece spends six weeks on the rack — from a cone of stoneware to the foot-signed thing you eventually pull out of the box. We don't restock, we don't reorder forms, we don't outsource. The kiln holds 32 pieces, eight come out as seconds, and the remaining 24 form the drop.

The studio is open Thursday through Sunday for slow walks and one-on-one fittings. If you've never thrown clay, that's the day to come.

From wedge to ship

The four movements.

i.

Wedge & throw

Cone 6 stoneware wedged by hand on a slate block, then pulled on the kick wheel. A tall vase takes about 40 minutes from cone to rim.

ii.

Bone-dry trim

Two weeks under cotton in the rack room. Trimmed at leather-hard, foot-signed with the drop number, slip-painted before bisque.

iii.

Glaze pour

Iron-saturate base over the body, ash overpour at the rim. Each piece glazed individually — no dipping batches, no spray gun.

iv.

Cone 6 fire

32-piece electric kiln, twelve-hour cycle, six-hour cool-down. Eight come out as studio seconds. The 24 keepers are the drop.
