Ceramic work is typically fired twice: it is bisque fired at 1945 degrees Fahrenheit and then glaze fired at mid range at 2160- 2290 degrees Fahrenheit. The goal of bisque firing is to convert green-ware to a durable, semi-vitrified porous stage where it can be safely handled during the glazing and decorating process. The clay and glazes we use are also made in New Mexico.
