We let the kiln cool all the way back down to 100 F or less so we can safely unload.Our kilns are set to fire at cone 06 which means they reach a temperature of 1800 F and takes around 24 hours to complete a cycle. Once the kiln is loaded, we do a safety check and turn it on.Stilts keep the items lifted off the shelf of the kiln so they don’t get stuck. When the clear glaze has dried, we carefully load items into the Kiln on stilts.We first dip half the piece, then let it dry thoroughly before dipping the second half, this is what ensures all areas of the ceramic are fully sealed. Items are hand dipped into a clear glaze.Everything is left to dry for at least 12 hours to ensure nothing is smudged.Heres what happens to your projects in our studio Without this process the paint would fade over time.
