It takes about three weeks to go from wet clay to a usable product. During its creation, the product goes through several stages of production, to which must be added the time of drying, firing and cooling. The process is time-consuming, but it creates durable products that last forever when used properly.

Each piece is handcrafted and carefully crafted, the uniqueness and range of colored glazes offering rich results in terms of shades and surface detail. This means that each piece is completely unique. No product will ever be exactly the same as another. Throughout the entire creation process, each product passes through my hands several times, giving it the energy of love and warmth that only a handmade piece can possess. Energy that you feel and that creates a special and unique experience when using it.

Stoneware is a type of ceramic. It is made of special clay, which is fired at temperatures above 1200°C. As an example - traditional Slovenian red clay ceramics are fired at 1050°C, and porcelain at 1300°C. High-temperature stoneware has special properties - it is resistant to mechanical and chemical influences, has low porosity and poorly absorbs water. Such products are solid, resistant to crushing and more compact to the touch.

Ceramics can be washed in the dishwasher. Even long-term machine washing will not affect the color, surface or usability of the product.

Yes, you can. Since all products are made of high-temperature clay, they can be used for baking and heating in a conventional or microwave oven without special preparation. You can use them as a baking tray or a base for baking. I only recommend using it in a bread oven, where uneven temperature distribution can cause damage.

All paints and glazes are suitable for contact with food, as evidenced by the relevant technical or safety data sheets and appropriate testing. Glazes are harmful to health in their raw, dusty state. After firing, these substances are inseparably bound in the vitreous surface of the glaze, which is not sensitive to aging, acids, bases and even heating up to 700°C.
