FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q. Are your mugs dishwasher / microwave safe?
A. Yes! They can be both microwaved and washed in the dishwasher. Like any pottery, we wouldn’t recommend microwaving for over 5 minutes, and when loading in the dishwasher, be sure they’ll be safe during the cycle! They shouldn’t be able to bump into any other dishes.

Q. Do you offer classes or workshops?
A. Yes! You can see the workshops that are currently available here. We offer a full roster of one-night workshops as well as 6- and 8-week courses. Sign up for our mailing list to be notified when we list new workshops!

Q. Can I shop your mugs in person?
A. Yes! We have a flagship store in downtown Victoria at 1208 Wharf St, #307. and you can see our hours here! We also have retail partners across Western Canada. You can see the full list by clicking here!

Q. Are the mugs in your online store the same as the ones in your gallery?
A. Most of the time, yes! The mugs you see online will also be available to shop in the gallery, unless they’re a limited edition design or a fundraiser. In those cases, local folks can buy the mugs online and choose “pickup in store” at checkout.

Q. Do you offer custom orders?
A. We are not currently accepting custom orders.
