About / FAQ

 

Hi! I'm Dani, the hands and heart behind Rookie. Everything is handmade by me in my basement in El Cerrito, California. I love making functional objects to make daily rituals just a *little* bit nicer. Selling these pieces helps to fund my exploration and craft. Thanks for stopping by!

  • What if something breaks in transit?

    If your piece arrives broken, please contact me within 5 days of its arrival and I will issue a refund for the item's price.


  • How do I care for my pieces?

    Handwashing is recommended, but not necessary (just be careful when loading into the dishwasher!). These pieces are also microwave safe, but may be extremely hot, so handle with an oven mit or towel. 


  • What are Seconds?

    Seconds are pieces that are not quite up to standard, usually due to glaze or firing errors, but are still usable. These items are discounted to reflect the errors.

 

  • Do you take commissions?

    I am not currently taking commisions, but if you have a particular fondness for a piece I would love to hear about it! It may just encourage a second round of production.


  • Do you sell in any retail locations?

    Select pieces are available At Werkstatt Pt. Reyes. If you'd like to feaure my work at your shop, please feel free to reach out and we can discuss. Follow me on instagram (@rookie.ceramics) for updates on when and where I will be selling.
