Each firing takes 2-3 weeks.
Clay is a process that requires time and process to fully complete. After your piece has been created it will need to dry slowly before it’s first firing in the kiln. This is called the bisque firing. Once it has been through the bisque firing, a 3 day process where we run a pre-heat, soak, 14 hr firing, and 24 hr cooling cycle it is ready to put the final decorative touches on and run through it’s final firing, the glaze fire. The glaze firing runs for 9 hours and cools for 24. Cracking and accidents can occur at any point during the drying or firing process so non-attachment is one of the key lessons pottery teaches us. We will do our best to care for your pieces through the process!
