Grow With Us

Little Pots was founded in January of 2022. Our goal is to create goods that make home feel like a little paradise.

We Learn as we create!

Here at little pots, we are stress and pressure-free. We strive for functionality and consistency while allowing grace for imperfection. See a pot you don’t like? No worries, Little Pots is constantly growing and implementing new practices in techniques and form.

Like many other ceramicists, I started my Ceramics journey in High-school.

Fast forward to January of 2022, and I jumped back in.

Mom was very big on art, creativity, and expression. So I know she would be proud.

FAQs

Where do you get your materials?

We often order from online stores like:

Our favorite brick and mortar:

What Kiln do you use?

Currently we’re using a Skutt 818-3. This sweet little beast can fire all the way up to cone ^ 10. Typically, Little Pots are fired at cone ^ 6. This kiln is rated for residential use.

What Wheel do you use?

We use the Clay Boss wheel by Speed Boss.

Are “Little Pot” pots safe and carcinogen-free?

Yes, Little pots only use glazes that are categorized as “Food safe” by the trusted manufacturer.

Every clay purchase is reviewed for any safety or environmental concerns. This is done by reviewing each clay’s safety sheet known as the Material Safety and Data Sheet (MSDS).

So how does the creator stay safe?

  • Always wet never dry. The studio is cleaned via water, mop, and sponge. No brooms allowed!

  • Here at Little Pots, we take extraneous efforts to ensure a clean and safe work environment by reducing airborne particulates

  • Safety masks and eye protection are always worn during airborne particulate-producing activities (i.e carving, and maintaining kiln shelves)
