About Me:
Hello! I'm a graphic artist, ceramist, and over-all jack of all trades preparing to move to Gaithersburg, MD!! I play video games, D&D, and enjoy a great cup of coffee!
Ur work is beautiful. I am at Benetti’s now admiring some of it. I am wondering about the mug w/o glaze on the outside. Is it safe for use, dishwasher, etc.? Will it absorb dirt and things more easily?
The blue glaze on the inside is amazing!!
The outside of those cups are actually ceramic englobes – a liquid clay body. They’ve been fired to cone 6, which makes them safe for the microwave and the dishwasher. I would caution that any handmade ceramic is best off hand washing, but I put things I’ve made in the dishwasher several times, and don’t plan on stopping any time soon. 😉 They shouldn’t stain so long as you keep them away from acids like tomatoes, oranges, etc. Acid in general can erode and stain any ceramic product if left submerged in it for long periods of time. I hope this information helps you out! 🙂
