Why go to Napa when we have our own vineyard in the back of our new studio in Japantown!

Not exactly a whole vineyard but we do have a grape vine behind the new studio. What a fun surprise!

Yaaaayyy… New kiln for new studio! Chris Ostrom

Yaaaayyy... New kiln for new studio! Chris Ostrom is our HERO of the day! Fantastic forklift finesse was needed for moving a 5000lb brick-lined GEIL 40cf kiln into our space... way to go Chris! This kiln will likely be converted to soda firing and will reside at our new studio in Japantown. Can't wait to see it in action later this year...! Thank you, Chris!~

Stay tuned for more new studio updates!

Rebricked floor of our “newer” 10 year old Bailey Kiln at the downtown studio! Whoo-hoo and thank you to Joey, Robin, and Jake for making it all happen!! We’ll give it a final trim and then set the hard bricks + bottom layer shelving in place. Looking good…! (Now all the other bricks will be jealous….)
