      FAQs
      • What firing temperature do you fire? 
        >
        For full kiln rentals, we follow your temperature. You may choose to fire Cone 5, 6 and 10 for glaze firing. If it is not full kiln rental, we fire at Cone 6 (1222
      • Do i need to go back there to glaze?
        > Nope, you just need to drop off your pieces and pick them up when they're ready. We will glaze them for you. If you want to glaze your own pieces, send us a message on Instagram so we can set up a time :) 
      • Can I go back after bisque to paint my pieces? 
        > Yes you can but we actually recommend you painting your pieces before firing (leather hard is best from our experience) the color comes out more vibrant based from our experiments. 
      • I want my pieces to be glazed a specific way (eg. inside is transparent glaze, outside is another glaze) Can you accommodate that?
        > Of course. Please message us your instructions on Instagram. 
      • I want a different glaze not just transparent
        > We have a wide range of glazes available for purchase. Check the them out here. Just message us on Instagram for your instructions. 


        Terms & Conditions:

        By availing of this service, you must agree that: 
        • I understand the risks in firing wherein there might be cracks or broken pieces because of air bubbles or water in my clay
        • I understand that uneven thickness in my pieces might lead to warping or cracking due to uneven drying
        • I understand that there might be hairline cracks especially in the joints of my attachments (due to uneven drying)
        • I understand that the information I entered is correct, as the team will base the temperature and glaze with the information that I entered, especially my clay type
        • I understand that if I choose not to use the Bumi & Ashe glazes that I must wax at least 1 inch from the table to avoid dripping and sticking on the shelf
        • I understand that the glaze might craze or shiver because of the nature of glazes
        • I understand that potters have a fail-rate and the average is 20-30% for beginners meaning 2 out of 10 of my pieces might not make it
        • I fully understand the risks of firing and that the Bumi team will do their best to control no matter how little that can be controlled in ceramics and I do not hold them liable for any failures in my works
