faqs
why do the pieces looks slightly different from each other?
due to the human element of handmade ceramics, each piece may have slight variations. this does not make a piece defective - it just shows that they are not machine produced. product photographs are intended to be true representations of the items but slight differences in glaze tones or finishes might occur due to the temperament of the kiln when fired. we are, after all, at the behest of the kiln gods.
how should i care for my pieces?
pots made by lone ceramics are functional and intended for daily use. they are food and dinnerware safe, unless labelled otherwise.
general care:
- hand wash to preserve longevity. dishwasher is not recommended.
- items will be individually labelled microwave safe as appropriate.
- avoid sudden temperature changes.
