Personalization Options

We offer two options for personalization:

1. Numbers in a Heart (8, 9, or 19)
   Symbolizing bronze and pottery anniversaries, these are ideal for gifting. They ship in 1–2 days.

2. Custom Initials or Date (Up to 2 characters)
   These are made-to-order and take 2–3 weeks to ship. Please message us with your custom request or add it at checkout.

These additions are pressed into the clay before firing, giving a subtle yet permanent personalization.

Introducing a timeless piece of handcrafted pottery: the bronze ceramic shot glass, made in our small studio in Colorado. This minimalist cup may be compact, but it makes a bold impression. Finished in a striking dual-glaze combination, the exterior features a rich, metallic bronze glaze that catches the light and shows depth from every angle. Inside, a glossy black glaze creates a bold contrast—sleek, modern, and refined. Together, these finishes elevate the humble shot glass into something worthy of admiration and daily use.

The Perfect Gift

Bronze and pottery both symbolize major anniversaries:

• 8th Anniversary: Bronze

• 9th Anniversary: Pottery

• 19th Anniversary: Bronze again

These shot glasses make thoughtful and symbolic gifts for partners, friends, or anyone celebrating a milestone. They’re also well-suited for wedding party gifts, bachelor/bachelorette events, or as a housewarming accent for anyone with good taste and love for handmade objects.

Learn More About the Maker

All of our work is handmade from start to finish in our Colorado workshop. We make our own clay bodies, glazes, and molds; nothing is outsourced or mass-produced. Each piece is fired in small batches and carefully inspected to ensure the best quality. You can learn more about the process and our studio philosophy on the Sarah Welch Pottery “Our Story” page.

We do not use commercial bisqueware or molds, and we never replicate factory processes. This makes each piece slightly unique and full of character.
