Bug Ceramics Mission

Committed to sustainable art practices and fair pay for artists.

Sustainable

Fair Trade

Did you know that ceramic is one of the most natural and sustainable materials?
"The wonderful thing about ceramics is that, no matter how long they last, they will not hurt the environment, if made with food-grade, lead-free glazes. Buying ceramics is a way to support local artisans, much as you might support local farmers to buy the food that’s served on those plates." (Katherine Martinko)

Never perfect, but always trying. Bug Ceramics makes a conscious effort to reduce environmental impact. Some ways we do this include limiting the number of kiln loads fired, reclaiming all clay scraps, packaging products in reused packaging, and a three bucket wash system to conserve & recycle water.
