Manufacturer Lead Times
Like other retailers, The Ceramic Shop has been impacted by the nationwide shortage of many products, driven by the effects of the Covid-19 Pandemic. Unfortunately shipping times may vary on larger equipment, such as kilns and wheels, and can extend 6+ weeks from the time of purchase. We will be working closely with the manufacturers to make sure your order gets fulfilled as fast as possible. Here is a list of our suppliers' current lead times that may be affecting your order. The manufacturer will be unable to answer any questions regarding the status or ship date of your purchase. Thank you for you patience and support!
Our current processing time is 5-7 business days!
