About

Cleaning
For the best care, we recommend hand-washing your pottery. While it is dishwasher safe, the rapid water movement can sometimes cause pieces to shift and bump into each other, leading to hairline cracks or breakage. Additionally, harsh detergents may be tough on the glazes over time.

Storing
To keep your pottery in its best condition, please store it with care. Avoid stacking too many pieces directly on top of each other, as this can cause unnecessary pressure and potential chipping. If stacking is necessary, we suggest placing a soft liner, such as a felt pad or cloth, between pieces to help protect them.

Fridge Friendly
Your pottery is refrigerator-safe, making it perfect for storing leftovers or chilled dishes. However, it is not freezer-safe — extreme cold can cause thermal shock, leading to cracks or breakage.

Baking In Your Etta B
Your pottery is oven-safe, but to ensure longevity, always allow it to warm gradually. Never place cold pottery directly into a hot oven. Instead, place the cold dish in the cold oven and let it warm up with the oven to prevent thermal shock.

Scratches or Utensil Marks
While each piece is very durable, pottery surfaces can develop utensil marks over time. To minimize this, use wooden or silicone utensils instead of metal when serving or cutting. If scratches or utensil marks appear from everyday dining, they can often be gently buffed out with our recommended product of Bar Keeper's Friend. You can find it at your local store or online. To use: Pour a small amount onto the pottery and lightly buff it in according to directions using a soft rag or cloth.

Handmade pottery is not stovetop or open flame safe — direct heat can cause cracking or breakage.

I take great care in inspecting each piece before it is carefully packaged and shipped, ensuring it meets the highest standards of quality. Because each item is handmade and hand-painted, slight variations in shape or design may occur, and I consider this subtle uniqueness part of the charm, not a flaw. If something doesn’t feel right or if you believe I may have missed something, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m here to make sure you’re completely satisfied. Simply share a picture, and I’ll do my best to assist you in every way I can.

Please note that pottery purchased during our sale events, signing events, custom-made items, seasonal items, and personalized items are considered Final Sale. If you need help with something, please let me know.

We will email a tracking number with the estimated arrival date as soon as your order is shipped. Please watch your tracking number for updates to know when to expect your delivery. If you will be away, please notify a family member or friend to gather your delivery once it arrives.

If your order has been delivered but you did not receive it, please check with your driver or local carrier as well as neighbors or family members for any information. Sometimes boxes are delivered in different places depending on the driver so please check around your home to see if it was left in a different area. Once your box has been marked as delivered, it is out of our control and I sincerely apologize. Occasionally orders will be checked as 'delivered' but arrive the following day.
