KILNS

Manufacturers’ conditions apply in full.

FOOD SAFETY

The term ‘food safe’ can be misleading as the final fired piece may be affected by a range of factors that suppliers/manufacturers have no control over. For example, firing temperature and contamination. Therefore, we cannot categorically say that a glaze will render your piece food safe. For this reason, makers should test all finished ware to establish dinnerware status.

We regret that no guarantee can be given on elements.
