Build your form
You’ll shape, refine, and surface your piece with guidance that keeps the process calm and approachable.

“Raymond was great. He took us through the process in manageable steps. I’ve never done pottery on a wheel before and I’m amazed how it wasn’t as difficult as I thought.”

“My birthday treat with my sister — we had a wonderful time. Raymond explained the whole process and was so patient. The studio is bright and relaxing. We’re already booking the six-week course.”

Good to know
Hand-building class — no wheel involved. Great if you prefer a quieter, more sculptural approach.
Wear clothes you don't mind getting clay on.
Pieces take approximately 8 weeks for firing. We'll notify you when ready.
Collect within 1 month of notification — uncollected pieces will be discarded.
Glaze results vary naturally due to chemical reactions during firing.
Cracks or breakage may occur during firing; refunds cannot be provided for firing issues.
Important notes
Glaze results vary naturally due to chemical reactions during firing. Pieces may occasionally crack during firing due to air bubbles or uneven surfaces; these outcomes are not refundable. Collect your piece within one month of notification.
