The Artisan Window: Every piece of Farmhouse Pottery is handcrafted in small batches in their Woodstock, Vermont studio. Because this intentional process prioritizes quality over speed, please allow a standard fulfillment window for our artisans to prepare your order with care before it enters transit.

Standard Shipping: Once your provision is ready, it is dispatched via Standard Shipping. We offer Free Standard Shipping on all orders over $150.

Fragile Handling & Breakage: We pack our pottery with extreme care, but the trail can be rough. If your order arrives damaged, please contact us immediately through our Order Support Form with photos of the damage so we can provide a swift replacement.

The Handmade Promise: Because these items are hand-thrown, each piece carries subtle variations in form and glaze—the "mark of the maker" that makes your provision unique.

Additional Details

The Grip: The raw clay bottom provides a natural texture that feels secure in your hand.
The Weight: Thick-walled stoneware keeps your expresso hot longer than standard ceramic.
The Maker: Every single piece is thrown, trimmed, and glazed by a real person in Vermont.

A Study in Durable Craft: The Silo Espresso Standard

There is something grounding about a cup that feels substantial, regardless of its size. For an espresso shot, where temperature is everything, the material of the vessel is as important as the roast.

"As a designer, I am drawn to the tension between the smooth glaze and the raw clay base of the Silo Espresso Cup," says Jordan. "It’s a beautiful functional contrast. In my Putnam studio, I chose this specific piece for the Mercantile because the thick-walled stoneware provides the thermal mass needed to keep a double shot or a cortado at the perfect temperature while you work. It bridges the gap between a tool and a piece of wheel-thrown art".
