Rent a Kiln

We also offer kiln rental for potters who want to fire their own creations. The price of this service is based on the quantity of pieces being fired.

The kiln has a capacity of 100 litres, and the cost is €60 for a full kiln.

The cost for a partial kiln is calculated based on the percentage of the kiln that is filled. For example, if a kiln is filled to 75%, the cost would be €45.

Glazing

There is an additional fee for glazing in the studio. Please contact us for more information.

Here are some of the benefits of renting a kiln from us:

  • You can fire your own pottery pieces at a professional level.

  • You can save time and money by not having to purchase your own kiln.

  • You can have peace of mind knowing that your pottery pieces are being fired in a safe and controlled environment.

If you're interested in renting a kiln, please contact us for more information.

Important information

Before any firing, we ask you to bring a photo of the label visible on the clay package, with which you have made your ceramics, in order to check whether it is earthenware, stoneware or porcelain and avoid any accidents during firing.

Indeed, the earthenware melts at high temperature which damages the heaters and the refractory bricks.

This is why we only accept to fire the pieces of clay suitable for high temperature (1260°C) even for the bisque firing (980°C).

For bisque firing: your pieces must be completely dry and the sculptures must be perfectly hollowed out when you bring them to the studio.

For glaze firing: the ceramics must be glazed beforehand.

We are not responsible for any breakage or cracks that occur during firing.

Our firing times are approximately three weeks.

Please check that all your work is signed.
