THE STORY

Fired twice, one in a hundred.

Each pitcher starts as a ball of stoneware clay on a wheel in our Portland studio. After shaping by hand, it rests for three days before the first firing.

Then comes the glaze — a matte finish mixed to our recipe, brushed on in three coats. A second firing at cone-10 locks it to the clay. The result is non-porous, chip-resistant, and built to last lifetimes.

DETAILS

Built to last, made to be used.

Stoneware clay

Sourced from a small mine in Oregon. Fine-grained, high-iron, fires to a warm neutral that reads like natural stone.

Cone-10 fired

At 2350°F the glaze and clay vitrify together. The result: non-porous, dishwasher-safe, and chip-resistant to a degree cheaper ceramics can never match.

Hand-finished

Every pitcher passes through our hands four times before it leaves the studio. No two are identical — small variations are the signature, not the flaw.

"Heirloom quality, everyday use."

The matte finish feels deliberate — my old pitchers all had that shiny glaze that looks cheap. This one reads as an object I'll hand down. Six months in, zero chips, zero staining.

"Worth every dollar."

I was torn on the price until I held it. The weight tells you everything — this is the real thing, not mass-produced. My kitchen finally has a piece that earns its counter space.
