The note on the left.
The words on the right.
Every pair below started as something a maker actually typed in a hurry. Nothing on the right was hand-edited after generation — these are raw outputs.
Speckled mug, sage
Listingspeckled mug sage glaze 12oz dishwasher ok — small batch, made last week
Hand-thrown Speckled Mug — Sage. Thrown on the wheel in small batches, then glazed in a soft sage that pools a shade deeper near the foot. Iron in the clay burns through as fine speckles, so no two are quite alike. Holds 12oz. Dishwasher and microwave safe. Made last week, in a batch of eleven.
Linen apron, oat
Listingoat linen apron one size pocket big enough for phone machine wash cold i think?
A linen apron that gets better after the first wash. Cut from 8oz European linen in oat, with a wide neck strap that doesn't twist and one pocket deep enough for a phone. One size, with an adjustable waist tie. Machine wash cold, hang to dry. The wrinkles are part of it.
Brass bookmark
Listingbrass bookmark 4 inches cut by hand edges rounded will go dark over time
Solid brass, 4 inches long — heavy enough to stay put, thin enough not to crease the spine. Cut and tumbled by hand, so the edges are rounded rather than sharp. Brass darkens where you hold it. That's the material, not a defect, and a soft cloth brings it back.
Kiln day
Instagramkiln opening 12 mugs went in 11 survived one cracked handle
Twelve went in. Eleven came out. The twelfth cracked at the handle sometime in the last two hours of cooling, which is the part you can't watch. I kept it. It's on the shelf by the sink, holding pencils. Eleven mugs, sage and oat, in the shop Thursday.
Shelf restock
Instagramshelf full again after 3 weeks sorry for the wait
The shelf is full again, three weeks later than I said it would be. Clay arrived late, then the kiln decided to take a week off. Both are fixed. Everything on these two shelves is dry, glazed, and going live at 11am. Thanks for waiting. I know three weeks is a long time in mug terms.
Studio shelf pin

Canada shipping
Buyer replyhi do you ship to canada and how much
We do — tracked shipping to Canada is $14, and it usually lands in 6–9 business days once it leaves the studio. If you'd like one held, say the word and I'll set it aside for 48 hours.
A three-star review
Review response★★★☆☆ — nice mug but smaller than I expected
Fair point, and I should have been clearer — it's 12oz, which is a smaller pour than most diner mugs. I've added the height in inches to the listing photos so it's easier to judge before ordering. Thanks for taking the time to say so.
Batch 14 dispatch
Shipping note2 mugs to portland tracked should be there thursday packed in paper
Your two mugs left the studio this morning and are tracking for Thursday. They're boxed in shredded paper, no plastic. First wash by hand if you can, though the dishwasher won't hurt them. If anything arrived unhappy, tell me and I'll replace it.
Newsletter blurb
Newsletterbatch 14 ships friday 11 mugs one cracked next batch in a few weeks
Batch fourteen is glazed, fired, and going out Friday. Twelve went into the kiln and eleven came back out — the twelfth cracked at the handle and it's holding pencils on my shelf now, which is where the good failures end up. Sage and oat, twelve ounces, $38. There won't be a batch fifteen until the clay order lands, so if you've been waiting on one, Friday morning is the time.
