Sell pottery online and keep up with every kiln opening
Sell pottery online the way studios actually work: in batches from each firing, with one-of-a-kind pieces that sell once, repeat mugs in a few glazes and classes on the side. Cornerrr builds that shop from a short description, with a Stripe checkout that pays you directly.

Step by step
How to sell pottery online in 6 steps.
Separate one-offs from your repeat line
Signature mugs and bowls you make again and again are products with glaze options and real stock. One-off vases and seconds get their own collection, each piece with a stock of one.
Treat each kiln opening as a launch
Many potters release new work in batches. Photograph a firing, list it all at once, and put the date of the next shop update on your home page so people come back for it.
Photograph glaze, foot and scale
Show the glaze in daylight, the unglazed foot, the inside of a mug and a hand holding it for scale. Say that each piece varies a little, because glazes move in the kiln.
Answer the kitchen questions
Say whether each piece is food safe, dishwasher safe, microwave safe and oven safe, in the same order on every listing. Buyers of mugs and plates check these before anything else.
Pack like it will be dropped
Wrap each piece, box it, then box it again with padding on every side. Weigh a packed mug, a set and a large vase, and set fixed shipping rates that cover each.
Sell classes alongside the work
If you teach, list each class date as a product with one stock unit per wheel. It sells out when the studio is full, and the class page brings local buyers to your pottery too.

Built in
A shop made for pottery, not a blank template.
A stock of one for every one-off
Unique pieces sell exactly once: checkout stops when a piece is gone, so two people can’t buy the same vase from the same firing.
Glaze options with their own stock
Your signature mug can come in four glazes, each with its own stock count and price, on one product page.
Commissions and café orders by request
Mark dinnerware sets and café orders “price on request”. Restaurants and couples send the quantity and date through a form, the request lands in your Inbox, and you reply with a quote.
A sign-up list for shop updates
Add a newsletter sign-up with double opt-in so fans can join your list before the next kiln opening, then export the list to the email tool you already use.

Before you start
Good to know
Food-safe glazes and lead
Glazes on mugs and plates must not leach lead or cadmium. In the US the FDA sets limits for ceramic tableware, and decorative pieces that look like tableware need a “not for food use” mark. The EU and UK have their own limits. Test your glazes and check the rules where you sell.
Sell seconds openly
Pieces with small flaws can sell well as seconds if you show the flaw in a close-up and say what it is. Honest seconds bring in new buyers without cheapening your main line.
Decide what happens with breakage
Before your first order, decide what you do if a piece arrives broken, such as asking for a photo of the piece and the box within a few days, and write it on your shipping page.
General information to help you get started, not legal advice. Rules differ by country, state and product, so check the ones that apply to you.

Questions
Good to know
Is it worth selling pottery online?
For many potters, yes: a website sells between markets and reaches people who met you at a fair. It works best with regular shop updates and clear photos, and Cornerrr builds the site and checkout so your time stays in the studio.
How do I make sure my glazes are food safe?
Use glazes made and tested for food surfaces, fire them exactly as the maker says, and consider sending finished pieces to a lab for a leach test. Then say on each product what it’s safe for.
Can I sell pottery class places on my website?
Yes. List each class as a product with one stock per place, and it stops selling when it’s full. Students get an order confirmation, and you see who’s coming in your Orders list.
How do I ship pottery so it doesn’t break?
Double box it: wrap the piece, pack it snugly in a small box, then put that box inside a bigger one with padding all round. Add the tracking number to the order and the buyer gets a shipping email with the link.
Do I need any technical skills?
No. You describe your business in your own words and Cornerrr builds the website. Afterwards you change things by clicking, or by asking the assistant in plain words.
How much does it cost?
Building and previewing your website is free, with no card needed. To go live and take payments, choose a plan from $19 a month. Every paid plan starts with a 14-day free trial; a card is needed to start it.
