Handcrafted Works of Art
Our pottery is hand casted or molded and painted. Therefore, irregularities do occur. You might see a tiny pin hole in the glaze. No two pieces are identical. Each piece is different and unique with variations in shape, texture and paint. Design and color can vary due to something as a subtle as the pressure of the potters hands on the brush or a flick of a painters wrist. Though we hand select each piece, we may miss a paint smudge, fingerprint or an extra loose lid. With repeated use, Majolica has a tendency to "craze" (formation of miniscule lines within glazing). This does not affect the durability of the item. These are all characteristics of handmade Majolica.

Care and Usage
Our pottery is food and dishwasher safe (unless we specify the piece is for decorative use only). We do not recommend putting items in the microwave or conventional oven unless it specifies that you may do so. All tableware and serving pieces are lead free. Temper dishes and serving pieces before serving very hot foods or liquids to avoid cracking.

Out of Stock Items
On rare occasions, items may be out of stock. We will contact you promptly via phone or email if we are unable to fulfill your order.
