Kiln Firing & Glazing Disclaimer
While we prioritise safety and quality in our glazing and firing services at The Art Department, it's important to acknowledge the potential risks. Ceramic pieces can unpredictably break, explode, or crack during the kiln process due to factors like thickness and air bubbles. We cannot be held liable for such occurrences, as working with ceramics inherently carries these risks.
Our studio follows industry standards to minimise them, but your understanding and caution are appreciated. If you have any concerns, please contact us at hello@theartdepartment.com.au. Your safety and creative satisfaction are paramount to us.
