We kindly ask that all pieces be finished and picked up within 3 months of their start date.
For safety reasons, glazing must be done during designated hours. Students are required to wear black nitrile gloves and an FFP3 mask while glazing. Eating or drinking during glazing is strictly prohibited.
Clay is a precious, non-renewable material. We encourage you to be mindful and intentional when choosing which pieces to keep and fire.
Our studio works with a small kiln, which means firings are done gradually and only when the kiln is full, to avoid wasting energy. Working with clay takes time: drying, firing, cooling… Each step is important to ensure your pieces turn out well. I do my best to have every creation fired as quickly as possible, but there may be some waiting time. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Swiss law applies, Geneva courts are competent.
