Shape
Porcelain is made from a combination of kaolin (a type of clay), feldspar, and quartz. The raw materials are mixed together in specific proportions.
The clay is shaped on a potter's wheel, a process known as throwing. The potter shapes the clay into the desired form, whether it's a vase, bowl, or another object.
Drying and initial burning
The formed piece is left to dry slowly until it reaches the leather-hard stage, where it's still damp but firm enough to handle.
The dried piece is fired in a kiln at a lower temperature (usually around 900-1000°C or 1650-1830°F). This process, known as bisque firing, removes any remaining water and organic materials, and it hardens the piece.

How should I store my porcelain pieces?
Store your porcelain pieces in a dry, stable environment. Avoid stacking them directly on top of each other without padding, as this can cause scratches or chips. Using felt or soft cloth between stacked items is recommended. Ensure that heavier items are stored at the bottom and lighter ones at the top.
Can I put my porcelain in the dishwasher or microwave?
Most of our porcelain pieces are safe for both. However, avoid sudden temperature changes, such as placing a cold piece directly into a hot microwave, as this can cause thermal shock and lead to cracking.
We generally recommend hand washing to preserve the longevity and beauty of your handmade items. If you choose to use a dishwasher, use the gentle or delicate cycle, and ensure that the pieces are securely placed to avoid movement during the wash.
Will the colors or glaze of my porcelain piece change over time?
Our porcelain pieces are made with high-quality glazes that are designed to last. However, over time and with frequent use, some minor fading or wear may occur, which adds to the character of handmade items. To preserve the color and glaze, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
What should I do if my porcelain piece chips or cracks?
If your piece chips or cracks, it’s important to handle it with care to avoid further damage. Small chips can sometimes be smoothed with fine-grit sandpaper. For larger repairs, we recommend consulting a professional restorer. Unfortunately, once a piece is cracked, it may not be safe to use for food or drink.
How to identify high-quality porcelain pieces?
To identify high-quality porcelain, look for translucency when held up to light and a smooth, dense feel. A clear, ringing sound when tapped indicates good quality. The surface should be smooth with a glossy, even glaze, and the piece should have precise, symmetrical details. Check for a maker’s mark on the bottom, which often signifies reputable craftsmanship. Generally, higher-quality porcelain comes with a higher price, so be wary of unusually low prices.
