A catalogue site for potters

Your shelf, online. Every glaze, every form, every piece.

Footring is a catalogue site for potters. Visitors filter by form, glaze colour and availability, compare pieces side by side, and copy a ready-written enquiry. There's no checkout and no account. You run it from your browser.

Free and open. Runs in any modern browser. Your catalogue is one file you own.

How it works

From shelf to enquiry in three steps.

  1. Add your pieces.

    Title, form, clay body, glaze, size, price and a photo. No photo yet? Footring draws the form for you, tinted in the glaze colour.

  2. Visitors find the one.

    They filter by form, glaze colour and availability, open a piece for its care notes, and put up to three side by side.

  3. They send you a proper enquiry.

    Footring writes the message for them, listing each piece with its glaze, size and price. They copy it or open it straight in their email. You get the detail you need in the first email.

What's in the box

Made for how pots actually sell.

Filters that make sense

Form, glaze colour and availability. Pick blue and green and you see both. Add "Available" and you see only what's still for sale. The counts update as you go, so nobody ever lands on an empty shelf.

Side by side

Put up to three pieces next to each other: height, width, glaze, clay body and price in one table.

Hello Ashgrove Pottery,

I'd like to ask about these pieces from your catalogue:

1. Tide Mug — mug, Sea blue glaze, H 9.5 × W 8.5 cm, £28, available
2. Moss Vase — vase, Fern green glaze, H 24 × W 12 cm, £85, reserved

Thank you,
Sam

The enquiry, already written

Footring writes the message and the visitor adds a line of their own.

Sold stays on the shelf

Sold work stays in the catalogue as a record of what you make. It can't be added to an enquiry, and if a piece sells after someone picks it, the message leaves it out and says so.

No photo? It draws the pot

Every form has a hand-drawn outline, tinted with the glaze family, so a new piece looks right before it's photographed.

Yours, as one file

Edits stay in your browser. Export the catalogue as a file to back it up, move computers or publish. Imports are checked first and a bad file is refused with the reasons.

Quiet in light and dark

Warm clay paper by day, kiln charcoal at night, following the visitor's system setting. Works with a keyboard and a screen reader. Large tap targets on a phone.

The real thing

This is Ashgrove Pottery's shelf. Try it.

Below is the actual Footring app, filled with a sample studio. Filter it, open a piece, add two to an enquiry. Nothing you do here leaves your browser.

Things to try

  1. Open Filters if they're folded away, then press "Blue" under Glaze colour.
  2. Open the Ember Teapot: it's sold, and it stays on the shelf.
  3. Add two pieces to the enquiry, then open Enquiry to read the message.

Good to know

No checkout, on purpose.

One-off pots sell through conversation: a question about the glaze, a collection date, a commission. Footring gets the right details in front of you and leaves the selling to you. There are no accounts and no fees, and nothing is stored on a server. You publish by exporting your catalogue and putting the file on your site.
