Member perks
Small extras, made by people who make pots.
No sponsored tool lists, no partner coupons. Every perk is something the studio makes or does itself, and each one says which tier it comes with.
Every perk, and who gets it
-
Seconds box

The February member show
All paid members
Once a year, every member can hang one piece in an online gallery. No judging, no prizes, just a very long scroll of good pots.
-
Find-a-studio list
All paid members
A member-built list of community studios and firing services, with notes on cost and what clay they fire.
Mentorship perk
What's in a seconds box
- Two seconds pots from the studio: a small wobble, a glaze run or an off-centre foot. Never cracked, always food safe.
- One tool Nico actually uses, like a trimming loop, a wooden rib or a sponge on a stick.
- A handwritten card with what went wrong on each pot, so it's a lesson as well as a mug.
Boxes ship in January, April, July and October. Shipping is free to the US and Canada and charged at cost everywhere else. If anything arrives broken, send a photo and we send a replacement. No need to post the pieces back.

What you won't find here
Affiliate links, sponsored tool lists or "exclusive partner discounts". When Nico mentions a tool or a clay, it's because he uses it, and nobody pays us for the mention.
Six lessons are free. The rest is $12 a month.
