Pottery Owl Bundle

My pieces are created from my studio at 'The Base', in Berkshire. (Or from under the stairs of my home during Covid-19 lockdown!) They are crafted by hand on a potters' wheel or constructed using hand-rolled sheets of clay. I enjoy adding minimal oxide decoration to help highlight the marks and natural surface created during the making process.

 

Once thrown or built, each piece is left to slightly dry, and then carefully refined with a range of tools. After a 'bisque-fire' oxides are applied with calligraphy brushes and sponges, then dipped in a clear glaze before a second firing. From beginning to end it can take at least a couple of weeks to complete a single object. Ceramics is an elemental labour of love turning mud and fire into unique pieces for your home.

 

These pieces are handcrafted and in order to preserve them at their best I recommend washing by hand and not in the dishwasher.

If you are not happy with your purchase for any reason I can offer a full refund if you tell me within 14 days of receiving your goods (by emailing caitgouldceramics@gmail.com). You have another 14 days to return the goods in the state you received them once you’ve told me. I cannot cover the cost of returning the goods and they must be unused. It is recommended that you return items via registered mail so that you have proof of dispatch in case the item is lost. 

You will receive your refund within 14 days of me receiving the goods back. You don’t have to provide a reason.

Your purchase is considerately packaged by Cáit and posted using "Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed" in order to insure the safety of the work. We aim to get your order to you within 3-4 days within the UK. International times vary. 

If your purchase is damaged upon arrival please let Cáit know within 7 days of receipt by emailing caitgouldceramics@gmail.com with photographic evidence. Claimants must retain all the packaging and contents of damaged items or items subject to part loss as Royal Mail may need to inspect them.

Every care is taken to ensure that your order reaches you at its best. However, accidents cannot be entirely avoided, and due to pieces being handmade there may be a wait of several weeks if you prefer to receive a replacement.
