Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

  • This is a hand-formed pottery experience plan where you can knead clay from a single lump of clay into any shape you like. You can make about two tea bowls or mugs. The shape is free, so you can create your favorite piece, whether it's a shape that is easy to use for everyday use or a shape that is fun to look at.
  • It's easy to enjoy, just like playing with clay!
  • There are many different ways to make pottery, but in our workshop, you will be making pottery using a method called "hand-building." This is a simple method of making pottery by creating a depression in a lump of clay and stretching and shaping it by hand, so even children and beginners can easily enjoy pottery.
  • Choosing the right glaze is also important!
  • The choice of color is very important as it can completely change the image of the finished product. There are six types of glazes available: White Hagi Glaze, Oribe Glaze, Yellow Seto Glaze, Black Tenmoku Glaze, Turkish Glaze, and Brown Ame Glaze. Please choose the color that best suits your image.
  • Barrier-free and pet-friendly!
  • The studio is barrier-free, so even wheelchair users can try their hand at pottery making. Furthermore, pets are allowed in the studio, so please feel free to bring your dog or cat with you.
