Further information

  • In order to fire your work, we will need to ask for the technical specifications of the materials you used.
  • We cannot take responsibility for firing damage due to the maker’s craftsmanship.
  • Messums studio staff, not the client will pack and fire our kilns.
  • You don’t need to hire the whole kiln if you are firing only small amounts of work. We will be able to quote you according to the size of your piece.
  • Technical or creative guidance (if required) is subject to a consultation fee specific to each such project.

*This price is based on a full kiln load of clay work of moderate size with the wall thickness not exceeding 1cm. If your work is large or thicker then the price will rise accordingly because we will need to extend the firing time.
