Know before you buy
These houses are designed as freestanding units. Simply place them on a flat, level surface in a shaded or damp area of your garden to ensure they remain stable.
No, the stoneware is fired at 2400° Fahrenheit, making the finish highly UV resistant. The color will remain vibrant even with consistent sun exposure.
Because each piece is handmade, you should expect slight variations in the glaze and finish. This ensures that each house has a unique, artisanal character.
Toads are natural predators that feed on slugs, beetles, and other common garden pests. By providing a dark, damp, and secure shelter, you encourage these helpful amphibians to take up residence in your garden.
While the stoneware is durable and high-fired, it is not rated as frost-proof. If you live in an area with freezing temperatures, it is best to store them indoors during the winter to prevent potential cracking.
