Refunds

  • Refunds will be offered if the item is damaged during shipment. If your piece arrives broken, please contact me and send an image of the damaged work including the box with packing materials. I will work with you to replace or refund your order based on your preference.

  • I am unable to provide refunds for lost or stolen items.

Photography

  • All work is photographed using natural light to accurately reflect glazes and texture.

  • Please note that while I take care to display the size and color of my work in images, descriptions, and measurements, subtleties in size and color may vary in person under different light conditions.

Care Instructions

  • All work is made by hand using food safe materials unless otherwise noted. I work with lead-free cone 10 stoneware and porcelain clay and glazes.

  • Pottery is watertight and may develop a patina with continued use – the sign of a well-loved pot.

  • I throw my work on the thinner side and recommend gently washing pieces by hand with soap and water for lasting care.

  • Pieces are dishwasher and microwave safe.

Commissions

  • Thank you for your interest in my work! At this time, my commissions are open to projects that align with my style, forms, glazes, and firing methods. If you’d like to learn more, please send me a note! My email address is marcinethrowsbynight@gmail.com.

  • I work with a range of budgets to create customized work depending on my availability and connection to the project.

  • Please allow up to eight weeks of production time for commissions.
