Press Clay Studio
Keep the full record of every piece.
Press Clay Studio gives ceramic artists a private place to save process photos, notes, materials, glaze tests, firing details, next steps, and reflections as the work changes.
Start with 5 free piece records. Upgrade when your archive needs more room.
What a piece record holds
Everything that shaped the piece, kept together.
Save the decisions, tests, photos, materials, firing notes, and reflections that usually end up scattered across your camera roll, sketchbook, and studio memory.
Why it matters
The finished photo is only part of the record.
A ceramic piece changes through sketches, drying, trimming, glaze decisions, firing results, and small discoveries. Press Clay Studio keeps those details connected so you can learn from the work later.
Carry the piece through every change.
Keep the first idea, building decisions, drying shifts, bisque notes, glaze results, firing records, and final reflection connected.
Save the first spark.
Hold onto rough sketches, references, surface questions, and forms worth revisiting before they scatter.
Remember what the kiln taught.
Preserve clay bodies, glaze recipes, firing details, test tiles, and observations while the lesson is still fresh.
How it works
