Frequently Asked Questions about purchasing

Works available for sale are listed at random intervals between 6-9 pm EST on Sunday evenings.  They often sell quite swiftly, and are then 'out of stock"!

Please keep refreshing the shoppe page between 6-9pm EST on Sunday evenings when a collection has been announced.  When a vase is uploaded, it will appear on the screen ahead of all the others!

This means that someone else had it in their cart as well, and they finished the purchase first.  You have to be super duper crazy fast with clicking.

It absolutely can be.  As I am creating every week, there will be more vases available, and perhaps an even better one is on the table now, being carved for you.

Yes, you can.  You will.  I'm sorry it's taken this much time, and this many tries. There are a bunch of folks wanting each one.  To keep it fair and make the work available to everyone and anyone equally, the random nature of putting the work up on Sunday evenings has served as my equalizer.  

I sure do!  I offer free complimentary shipping with every vase purchased.  It'll cost me a bit more to get it to you, but that's okay.  It feels really wonderful to think of my work all over the world.  It'll take a lot longer to get to you, and you'll be responsible for any VAT or charges on your end.  But wow, yes!  Love to send a vase your way!

At this time I am not accepting commissions.  I am flattered, and would really like to be able to.  After a lifetime of making detailed artwork, my hands are aging. There is a limit to the vases I can carve.  This human condition of life expectancy is a total bummer.  I will be offering my creations to the public for now, and hope to offer limited commissions in the future.

Yes!  My work turns up on the secondary market on occasion.  It will often be priced higher by those who are selling it.  If you love that particular vase, you should buy it!  It's lovely and I likely won't make another!  All vases here on this site are coming from my hands in my studio, passing through my kilns, carefully packed and kissed goodbye before they reach your home:)

I'm sorry, but I do not have a place to welcome you at the moment.  My studio is sacred space, and I bite when disturbed. Ask the mailman.
