Ordering and savings

How does the set saving work?

Any 2 pieces from our kitchen and table collections save 10%, and 3 or more save 15%. The saving is applied automatically in your cart, and you can mix designs and categories.

Is there a saving on two sinks for a double vanity?

Yes. Add two vessel sinks to your cart, in the same design or two different ones, and 10% is taken off the pair automatically.

Which payment methods do you accept?

Shop Pay, PayPal, Google Pay and major credit and debit cards. Payment is processed through Shopify’s secure checkout.

Can I order a custom design or size?

Yes. Email info@evanilife.com and tell us what you have in mind. Custom pieces take 7–10 business days to make and cannot be returned unless they arrive damaged.

About the ceramics

Where are Evanilife ceramics made?

In Kütahya, Türkiye, a city whose ceramic workshops go back centuries. Evanilife has been making hand-painted ceramics there since 2018.

Is every piece exactly the same?

No. Each piece is painted by hand, so colours and brushwork differ slightly from one piece to the next. That variation is what makes each one unique.

Are the pieces food safe and lead-free?

The pieces we make for food and drink, such as mugs, teapots, bowls and oil dispensers, are described on their product pages as lead-free and food-safe. Decorative plates, vases and tiles are made for display.

Can the ceramics go in the dishwasher or microwave?

It depends on the piece, so check the care notes on its product page. Garlic grater plates are dishwasher safe but not suitable for the microwave. Trivets, coasters and pieces with gold detailing should be wiped clean by hand.

How do I use a ceramic garlic grater plate?

Rub a peeled garlic clove in small circles over the raised teeth in the centre of the dry plate until it becomes a paste. Add olive oil straight onto the plate for a dip, or gather the paste and add it to your pan. It also works for ginger, nutmeg and citrus zest.

What sizes do the vessel sinks come in, and what do I need to install one?

Every sink design comes in five diameters: 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18 inches (25 to 45 cm). They sit on top of the countertop, have a standard-size drain hole and are usually paired with a tall vessel faucet or a wall-mounted faucet. Professional installation is recommended.
