Ugh oh, I broke my lid. What do I do now?
Once a piece is broken, its not best to try to glue or “fix” the piece.
Lids are special, as they are thrown with the pot from the moment it is wet clay. They dry together, are bisqued together, and are glazed together–they’re quite inseparable.
Consider using the pot without its lid, and purchasing another to take its place in the every-day use in your home. You’ll be delighted you did.
If it’s not for cooking purposes, a powerful glue can hold the piece in place, but is naturally prone to breaking again
A small piece of enamel on the inside of my pot chipped away. Is it safe to use, and how do I fix it?
If the chip is on the outside of the pot, it is still safe to use. Coat the chipped spot with oil to keep moisture out.
However, if the chip is on the inside, contact us with a high-resolution picture.
It is possible that we may be able to re-fire the piece for a $50 re-firing fee.
I think I scorched my pot, and there are brown marks on the inside of my pot. How do I remove them?
To prevent staining, use only medium or low heat settings. However, stains will occur with use, and we recommend filling a pot with one part enzyme laundry detergent and three parts water. Boil for ten minutes, let cool and discard solution. Wash the pot with regular dish detergent, rinse and dry.
To restore your pot’s sheen, apply a light coat of white vinegar.
