Lifting Your Heart - from Long Story Short

All the Jenn Johnston Ceramics pieces are handmade. My work is either thrown on the wheel or hand built, bisque-fired, then glazed and finally high-fired. Due to the nature of the handmade process, there will be slight differences in the size and colours of the finished products. As each piece is unique, the piece/s you receive will not be precisely the same as that in the photo.

I predominately work with stoneware, which is then high fired, resulting in durable pieces, suitable (and indeed intended for) everyday use. The glazes I use are food safe, and handwashing and careful stacking is recommended.
