Most people look in our showroom for ideas about shapes and colors. It takes approximately two weeks to a month to complete an order. Pottery has many steps and it takes time. Glazes are personal choices. Colors are like members of a family. They vary somewhat from firing to firing but in the end a set will blend nicely and look like all pieces belong. If you prefer to order by phone from out of town allow four to six weeks for arrival depending on the size of the order. We ship via US Mail and charge the packing and shipping to you. We need your input to say “I want browns, blue green, light or dark, etc” We have many colors to work with and can surely come up with something that is to your liking.
