SheaClay high fired stoneware pottery includes dinnerware, bowls, platters, mugs, decorative ware and more- thrown and altered, stamped, carved and finished with lead free glazes, suitable for oven, dishwasher and microwave.
Tracy Shea says, "I strive to create joy in the simplest thing, like really good coffee in a really great cup. It's that warm moment of appreciation, like when you are struck by the beauty of your surroundings, or when you receive kindness from a stranger, that I try to capture in my work. My pursuits include a balanced overall form with a sense of movement. I try to create lots of edges and hard lines through carving, stamping, throwing marks- many places for glaze to break, change direction and create more color. I like warm, muted tones that provide a natural background for food and celebration, a form which invites you to pick it up and use it, and good function for service, which enhances the beauty of the form and realizes my initial goal for creating it."
CARE OF STONEWARE: Thank You for supporting Fine American Craft. Each piece of SheaClay stoneware pottery is handmade on the potter's wheel from food safe clay and glaze, and may be used with care in the oven, dishwasher and microwave. The following guidelines will help you to care for SheaClay Pottery:
Hot Stoneware can cause burns if handled improperly. Always use a heat-resistant oven mitt or pad when handling hot stoneware or placing on surfaces.
Avoid extreme temperature changes. Don't put frozen food in stoneware and put into a hot oven. Always allow Stoneware to cool to room temperature prior to adding liquid or cleaning. Do not use chipped or damaged stoneware. Do not use Stoneware under broiler or on direct heat source.
Stoneware can break if bumped or dropped. If this occurs, use caution as broken pieces can be sharp and could cause injury. Stoneware should not touch the sides of the oven or oven door when closed.
Sometimes stoneware that has been through repeated cycles in the dishwasher may absorb moisture, especially if the bottom is unglazed or the piece is matte glazed. This may cause ware to get hot in the microwave, so use extreme care and a mitt to test before removing. Allow ware to dry thoroughly, or hand wash as an alternative, and avoid boiling liquids in the microwave to avoid possible overheating of ware.
Each piece is smoothed and sanded with care, but due to the granular nature of hardened stoneware, care should be taken to use coasters and placemats to protect fine furniture and counters from scratches. Your new pottery is coated with durable and stable glaze which will give you many years of good use and can be put in the dishwasher. However, some very harsh citric or chemical based water softening agents may dull the glaze finish over time and with many repeated washings. It is best to avoid them.
