Terrafirma Ceramics, Inc Terrafirma Ceramics is a working pottery studio located in the heart of New York City, designing and producing handmade functional American art Pottery. Known for its unique dinnerware and tabletop accessories, Terrafirma was founded in 1980 by artist Ellen Evans. As owner and artistic director of the Terrafirma studio, Ellen s creative focus is to design and produce high quality, functional works of art for the table and home using a unique, original process. Patterns are created by painting through textiles and lace using liquid porcelain to produce a distinctive one of a kind result. The base of warm, natural stoneware juxtaposed with vibrantly colored and patterned porcelain surfaces achieves the casual yet sophisticated look that has become her signature in both dinnerware and accessories. Terrafirma products are made entirely by hand and kiln-fired to extremely high temperatures, giving each piece its own personality and great durability. Slight variations in color, texture and surface blushing are the natural and desired result of the hand building and high-firing process and assure each piece of its individuality. Each collectible, copyrighted design is signed and dated. All Terrafirma is food safe and completely dishwasher safe. Care for your Terrafirma pieces as you would any fine china. When using your accessories in the oven, please start from room temperature in a cold oven. The microwave may be used for warming- no more than two minutes. Terms & Conditions All Terrafirma pieces are made and painted entirely by hand in our New York studio. Slight variances in the finished surface are characteristic of our product and contribute to their unique appearance. Lead-time is typically 4-6 weeks. This may depend upon production conditions and other factors. **Holiday Orders should be submitted by October for December shipping. Please be sure to note if the order is required for an event set for a specific date. Rush orders should be discussed with Ellen Evans Cartons are shipped via UPS Ground from Astoria, NY. Shipping & Handling charges are additional. In our homes today, we want beautiful artistic objects that we can use comfortably everyday. My goal is to design tableware that enriches the presentation of food and in itself makes an elegant statement yet is practical and durable enough for constant use. Please enjoy using and giving Terrafirma. ~Ellen Evans
