Things to note-

At Community Clay, we take every precaution to ensure your pottery turns out beautifully. However, ceramics is an art of discovery, and certain outcomes can be unpredictable:

• Breakages or Cracks: Rarely, items may crack or break during firing due to the natural stresses of the process.
• Color Variations: The firing process can alter glaze colors, creating unique effects.
• Any other materials used on items must be pre-approved, we reserve the right to not fire your items if anything but our underglazes are applied. This is to keep our equipment and other people's work safe.
• Learning Process: Pottery is a journey – enjoy the surprises and creativity involved!

We pride ourselves on our experience and careful handling, but we cannot guarantee perfect results. Rest assured, every piece is treated with care and expertise.

*Safety Warning: Tableware producers must test all finished ware to establish dinnerware status, due to possible variations in firing temperature and contamination.
