Dimensions & Measurements

General

As tableware is a natural product, all measurements are provided as a guide only, and can differ slightly from one piece to the next. This is because any variation in temperature, firing-times on individual production runs as well as across different batches can effect measurements. For example, weights can be affected by slightly more clay, increased water evaporation during firing, thickness of glaze used, etcetera. The same can be noted for any other dimension including sizes and capacities.

If you are at all unsure about the items you are selecting, please do not hesitate to contact us before placing your order.

Single Items

All our single-item products are measured in a specific way, which is detailed below. Should you require further in-depth measurements, please feel free to contact us.

Height: This measurement provides the entire height of the product, measured from the base to the top.

Width: This measurement provides the full width of the product and would include features such as spouts and handles. We commonly refer to this as the side-to-side measurement.

Depth: This measurement provides the often-called short measure, such as the diameter of the widest part of a mug, jug, teapot, etc. We commonly refer to this as the front-to-back measurement.

In respect of diameters, such as those for circular plates, the width and depth measures will be listed as the same value for each.

Product Sets

For our multiple-item products, we provide the packing dimensions where possible, but sometimes there will be none as these can change dependent upon the box sizes provided by our suppliers. In the case of measurements being supplied, these are described below, but as noted earlier, these can be subject to change per delivery.

Height: This measurement provides the full height of the delivery carton.

Width: This measurement provides the widest side of the delivery carton.

Depth: This measurement provides the shortest side of the delivery carton.

In some cases, no direct delivery dimensions can be provided, so instead individual item dimensions will be listed under Item Dimensions on the More Information tab of each product page. This is an ongoing work in progress, so if you find something that does not provide the measurements you are looking for, please let us know and we will ensure they are provided to yourself and added to the website for future reference.
