Ceramics posted out will be at the customers risk as they can not be insured and can get broken, so we prefer not to post ceramic pieces.
Collections:
Pieces usually take 7-10 days to get back and 10-14 days during school holidays. While we endeavour to get pieces out as fast as possible, it can on occasion take longer than expected, depending on size and shapes of pieces to be fired. Similarly, we often get pieces out well before the estimated collection date.
