No, and that's the beauty of Club terracotta boxes. We wanted to make pottery accessible to everyone at home, without the need to fire the pieces in a ceramic kiln.

 

We use natural self-hardening clay, i.e. which dries in the open air in 24 to 48 hours, to which fibers have been added to make it more resistant. It should therefore not, and cannot, be fired in a ceramic kiln or even in a conventional kiln.

 

On the other hand, since clay does not cook, you will not be able to consume food or drink in your creations, but you will be able to make a host of other objects.

Properly packed in the bag, the clay will keep for about 3 months. It is in contact with the air that it begins to dry, so take care to close the bag containing the wet clay.

Once your piece is sculpted, it will dry in about 24 hours. On the other hand, if it is very thick, it may take longer, see 2-3 days.

To make your creation water resistant, you will need to apply a few coats of paint and sealer, provided in the box. Allow to dry well between coats. If you are making a pot for a plant, we advise you to leave your plant in the plastic pot and take it out to water it.

As the clay does not cook, it is not food grade, so you will not be able to drink or eat in your pieces.

We process orders in 1-2 business days and then ship them via Canada Post.
