All five pitchers are made of a high-fired white stoneware, based on sketches of 10-11th century pitchers excavated at Lincoln.
Pitchers 1-3 were fired in a wood kiln (an anagama kiln, to cone 12 - it was a really fun process, and took a week from loading to firing, cooling, and unloading). They are glazed on the inside with a clear imitation lead glaze (but completely lead free and food-safe). The clear glaze was also splattered on the outside. All of the color and texture on the outside of these pitchers is from the ashes in the kiln.
Pitchers 4 and 5 were gas fired. Like the wood fired pitchers, they're glazed on the inside with a clear food-safe glaze. I sprinkled the outsides with ash and left them otherwise unglazed (like many of the originals I studied).
Shipping is $10 CONUS. I might be able to knock off a few dollars if I'm shipping more than one pitcher - I would have to check with the post office first.
