Firing Service

We offer a firing service for all the ceramic makers who don’t have access to a kiln. If you would like to fire with us you can come and drop your pieces off at the studio during all opening hours. 

All materials that go into our kilns need to be checked and verified by our staff. So please make sure to bring along a picture of the labels of ALL materials used in your work. 

To avoid disappointment at the studio, please double check that your materials can be fired with our temperatures beforehand.

Firing FAQs

You were wondering how long it will take for your items to be fired?

Or if you can rent a whole kiln?

Check out our Firing FAQs for all the ansers.

  • Average turnaround is 1-2 weeks; however it heavily depends on the sizes of the pieces and the studio firing schedule. Larger pieces can take longer.

  • It depends on how much work there is on the shelves but we fire on average 2 to 3 bisque kilns and 2 glaze kilns per week.

  • Yes, please contact us at least one month in advance via email at studio@peaceoutparadise.com to discuss specifications and firing requirements.

    As our members work has a high priority, we will not take any private bookings during December.

  • Yes, please provide pictures of the labels of all materials used when bringing in your work.

    The studio takes no liability in any case of damage to our kilns or other peoples work.

  • As long as you have previous experience with glazing then we are happy to have people glaze external work in the studio. A single check-in is 25€.

    Regular firing fee applies.

  • We aim to get everything through our kilns within 2 weeks.

    This timeline can vary depending on the size of a piece - for instance very small items usually go through very fast, whereas large sculptures will have to wait longer before there is room in one of the kilns.

    We upload pictures of everything taken out of the kilns on @popkilns instagram, so you can always keep an eye on things from there.

  • Yes, ALL outside materials (clay and glazes) must be compatible with our firing temperatures and be checked by a member of staff before being used.

  • In order to use your own clay in the studio we need to know all details in advance. Once confirmed we can provide a plaster bat, bucket and storage space for your clean up and recycling.

    We offer this for a period of 2 weeks at a time, after which time the set up needs to be cleared so that other members can use the space.
