For
People learning to choose and care for handmade pottery
Worth noticing
Its shelf identifies twelve vessel shapes and gives each one a physical detail to check by hand.

Field notes

Kilnpetal uses a filterable twelve-item shelf to connect vessel silhouettes with the physical checks that matter for each form. Its glossary supplies terms including kodai, throwing rings, trimming, and chatter, while the glazing section frames glaze as glass formed in the kiln. The homepage also explicitly presents the project as independent, unsponsored, and free of analytics or tracking.
