Kiln Rental / Firings

Timing:

Timing is flexible but may be affected by other firings. Let me know what you’re looking for and we’ll see how fast we can make it happen.

General Firing:

Bisque firing: Greenware must be bone-dry. Fired to ^04 and are candled for at least 4 hours prior to all firings.

Glaze firing: Fired to ^6. There must not be any glaze on the bottom of your piece. Foot must be bare ¼” from base. Clean up fees apply if I need to clean your pieces for you.

Luster firing available. You can either book the whole kiln or wait until the next time I have enough other luster pieces to fill it.

Please let me know: clay body, confirm that it is ^6/temp range (not ^06), glaze type (is it commercial?) and if you have used this glaze before. If your glaze may drip, use cookies! Bring your own cookies. Questions? Let’s chat!

Custom and Special Handling:

Get in touch - I’m flexible and we can work something out. Just because I generally do ^6 doesn’t mean we can’t do something else, it just means you would need to fill the kiln with just your own work.

Have an extra special delicate piece you want to load yourself? That’s possible!

Firing Fees

Full Kiln - $90

Half Kiln - $55

Contact me for smaller amounts or per piece firings.

Payment is due on or before pick up.

Firing Results & Damage

Firing can have unpredictable results. I can’t guarantee the outcome will be what you had expected and am not responsible for any unexpected results such as cracking, breakage, glaze abnormalities, etc.  You are still responsible for the cost of the firing and if an item damages the kiln or shelves you may be responsible for the cost of cleaning or replacements.
