General information and care instructions
Our porcelain is food safe and can, with some care, be used in the oven, microwave and dishwasher. Sudden changes in temperature (e.g. from freezer to oven) are likely to cause thermal shock, which will damage your porcelain. Always place very hot items onto either wood, cloth or our Terrazzo Trivets.
To avoid glaze scratches, ideally your Mud porcelain will be stored in plate racks or with linen/felt between each item. Please note: ink, orange, plum, red, slate, wasabi and yellow porcelain are our premium colours. These items are more complex to make and require more pigment for depth and vibrancy of colour, hence the premium pricing.
Our returns policy
We offer a 30-day exchange period from the date of delivery on all online orders. Items must be returned intact in their original, unused condition.
Please email Customer Service with your order number to make arrangements to return your items. Make sure to pack the return pieces as securely as possible, preferably in the same packaging you received them. Any additional shipping and postage charges are your responsibility. Please note shipping costs are non-refundable. Mud is not responsible for any breakages of return items.
If your item/s arrive broken or faulty please email us at [email protected] or complete our contact form to inform us about damaged goods within 48 hours of delivery. We request you send us photos showing the damage so we can arrange a replacement item or credit. Please do not send us broken items.

Our bowls are highly versatile with almost endless combinations, serving your ever changing dining needs.
