PRODUCT AVAILABILITY
At Clayful we prefer to work under the made-to-order model which allows to avoid overproduction, reduce storage facilities, and generally be more sustainable in production. Made-to-order products are marked with ‘pre-order’ label, production of these items takes 2-6 weeks depending on the product, order size and general workload of the studio.
Also, we usually have a small amount of most popular models and color combinations ready to be shipped. These products are marked with ‘in stock’ label and can be shipped in 1-3 working days after confirming the order.
Although we strive to provide accurate and updated information on the availability of the products, unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that all items are in stock at the time you place your order. If this is the case, we will contact you via email with apologies and a proposed course of action.
Please note that if you purchase ‘pre-order’ items together with ‘in-stock’ items, all the items will be shipped together, as one parcel, after ‘pre-order’ products are ready (2-6 weeks). If you would like them to be shipped separately please place two individual orders.
PRODUCT INFO
All products from Clayful are handmade in our workshop in Vantaa. The products are made of porcelain and fired to 1290C. All the products are glazed inside with a food-safe lead-free glaze. Products that are left unglazed on the outside are wet sanded after the last firing, resulting in a silky matte surface. Although the wares are vitrified (it means that the temperature in the kiln was high enough to turn certain amount of clay component into glass, thus making the surface impervious to water), and their water absorption level is practically zero, unglazed surfaces are still more susceptible to stains than glazed ceramics. To prevent a stain from becoming persistent, keep your wares clean with frequent thorough hand- or machine- wash. We do not guarantee against stains.
Unless otherwise stated, the products are dishwasher and microwave safe. They are not ovenproof and do not tolerate rapid change in temperature (for example, going to oven straight from freezer).
Due to handmade nature of our wares, slight variations in color, shapes and sizes are possible, these variations are not considered as defects.
PRICES
All prices are displayed in euros (EUR) and do not include delivery and customs fees.

Please be aware that orders shipped outside EU might be subject to additional costs such as customs duties and/or country specific taxes.
