Ceramic Jugs FAQs

What materials are your ceramic jugs made from?

Our ceramic jugs are handcrafted from stoneware clay and are glazed inside and out for an easy-to-clean surface.

Stoneware can be fired to high temperatures resulting in a more durable product which is less porous and absorptive. This makes our ceramics stronger and more resistant to cracking.

What sizes are the handmade ceramic jugs available in?

We offer ceramic jugs in mini (80ml) and small (150ml).

How durable are the glazes and finishes? Can they go in the dishwasher?

All our products are food safe, featuring lead-free, cadmium-free glazes which are scratch resistant and ideal for everyday use. The glossy smooth finish makes cleaning super easy.

They are completely dishwasher safe, although handwashing is kinder and will preserve their quality and longevity. Harsh dishwasher detergents can dull glazes over many cycles and cause crazing (tiny cracks that aren't always visible to the naked eye).

What makes your jugs unique?

All my pieces start by throwing a form on the pottery wheel. As such, slight variations in shape and glaze tones reflect the handcrafted production methods. Styles range from modern to traditional, but all showcase beautiful craftsmanship.

Each glaze recipe has been formulated from scratch and is unique to me, meaning you won't find these exact finishes and colours anywhere else. At Katie L Thompson Designs each piece is handcrafted and one of a kind.

Can the ceramic jugs be used in the microwave or oven?

While our ceramic jugs can safely go in the microwave, we do not recommend using them in the oven or freezer due to the risk of thermal shock.
