Meet the Maker
Hi, I’m Judy, the heart and hands behind Sagey Mood Ceramics. My journey with pottery began in 2021 when I discovered the magic of working with clay. What started as a creative hobby quickly became my passion and a way to express myself. I invested in a wheel and kiln, diving headfirst into the world of clay. Through self-teaching, experimentation, and learning from the generosity of potters sharing their craft online, I refined my skills and techniques. From the endless possibilities of glaze combinations to the excitement of each kiln opening, I pour my heart into crafting unique, functional art that brings joy and connection to everyday life.
The clay I use is sourced primarily from the historic Irvine Formation in Madison County, Kentucky. Known for its earthy tones and natural versatility, this clay has been shaped by time and tradition, echoing the craftsmanship of early settlers and artisans. When you hold one of my creations, you’re holding a little piece of history—transformed through tradition and crafted with love.
My pottery is crafted using nontoxic, dinnerware-safe glazes. All of my pieces are microwave and dishwasher safe—except for those featuring gold lustre.
My love for crystals, energy cleansing, and the esoteric inspired the name Sageymoodceramics. These passions are infused into every piece I create, from the careful selection of materials to the thoughtful designs meant to radiate warmth and positivity.
I hope my work brings a little magic into your life, just as creating it has brought into mine.
How it’s Made
How It’s Made:Every piece is carefully wheel-thrown from strong stoneware clay in my home studio. After shaping, it’s bisque fired for over 12 hours in my electric kiln. I apply layers of dinnerware-safe commercial glazes to achieve rich, unique colors before glaze firing again for 9 hours at 2185°F (cone 6). This mug is then hand-painted with gold luster and fired a 3rd time for 4 hours. Then hand-sanded for a smooth finish and tested to ensure it’s completely safe for everyday use.

Care Instructions
Most pieces are dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended for longevity.
Pieces with gold luster are not microwave safe. Other stoneware pieces are generally microwave safe, but avoid sudden temperature changes (thermal shock) to prevent cracking. Always allow pottery to adjust to room temperature before adding hot or cold liquids.
Caution When Using Hot Beverages: Pottery retains heat and can become very hot when used with hot beverages. Please handle with care to avoid burning your hands or accidental drops.
If a piece develops a crack due to thermal shock or accidental damage, it is no longer safe to use. Cracks may cause leakage or create sharp surfaces, and the piece should be retired from functional use.

Sageymoodceramics is not responsible for any injuries, damages, or losses caused by the use or misuse of pottery items. Please follow the provided care instructions to ensure safe use.
