What ceramic buyers ask
Buyers of hand-made ceramics are interested in the technique, the glaze, the region and the maker, and practically in whether a piece is food safe and dishwasher tolerant. Galleries and interior designers commission sets to specification, which is the best-paid work and is almost never offered as a service. Restaurants are a further market entirely, buying hand-made tableware in matched batches. Meanwhile most workshops sell single pieces to whoever walks past, at prices that do not reflect the hours involved.
What we build for a ceramic workshop
First, a piece catalogue with technique, glaze, dimensions and food-safety information, photographed to show surface and colour truthfully. Second, custom commissions as a service, with process, lead time and pricing for designers and restaurants. Third, wholesale terms for galleries and shops, plus batch capability for matched sets. Fourth, workshop and class bookings, which is reliable revenue between commissions and brings buyers into the studio.
