Kiln rentals

Made somewhere else? We'll fire it. Home studio, balcony wheel, a class you took years ago — bring your work bone-dry and it goes into the next firing.

How it works

We fire, you collect.

Bring your work in bone-dry and it goes into the next firing. We use a Cone Art GX2327D, and the inside holds six shelves.

If you're not sure what your clay is, bring a spare test piece and we'll fire that first.

What you're paying for

Space on the shelf, not clay.

Firing is charged by the room your piece takes up — the box it sits in, measured at its widest, deepest and tallest point. A wide dinner plate costs more to fire than a heavy little mug, because it uses more shelf.

What you need

The full rates

Three ways to be charged. Per piece for a handful of things, a shelf when you have enough to fill one, the whole kiln when you have a lot — the kiln is six shelves, so a full load is exactly six of them.

Firing charges by volume — bisque, glaze, studio glazes and total
Volume Bisque firing Glaze firing Studio glazes All three
Per piece per cubic inch 0.91.10.52.5
Per shelf up to 4″ height 1,2001,5007003,400
Full kiln six shelves 7,2009,0004,20020,400

All figures in rupees, rounded to the nearest ₹5. Bisque and glaze are separate firings and are charged separately — you only pay for the ones you need. Studio glazes are the glaze itself, so if you bring your own, that column doesn't apply.

The fine print

  • Bone-dry only — anything cool or damp to the cheek waits for the firing after.
  • No glaze on the foot; wipe 5 mm up. Stuck pots are still your pots.
  • Kilns are loaded by us — that's how everything comes out whole.
  • Explosions happen to the best of us. We fire with care but can't insure hand-built dreams.
