[Osaka, Tanimachi 6-chome] Hand-building and pottery wheel experience in a 120-year-old townhouse atelier (beginners welcome)

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

• Enjoy an authentic hand-forming pottery experience at this pottery atelier, renovated from a 120-year-old townhouse in the quiet streets of Tanimachi Rokuchome, Osaka. The owner, a master potter, will provide thorough instruction, making this experience comfortable for beginners. The experience lasts approximately two hours. This private, small-group experience, limited to a maximum of four people, allows you to focus on creating your own unique piece in a relaxing atmosphere. The clay used is from Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture. You can freely create teacups, small bowls, mugs, and more. The atelier is located just a short walk from Tanimachi Rokuchome Station on the Osaka Metro, near the Karahori Shopping Arcade, making it an easy stop between sightseeing. Why not soothe your travel fatigue by working with clay and take a moment to unwind from your daily routine with a little "craftsmanship"? Your finished piece will be carefully dried, glazed, and fired, and then carefully delivered to your home at a later date (shipping fees vary by region). Enjoy a one-of-a-kind piece of pottery for everyday use as a memento of your trip.
• Easy for beginners
• The instructor is a ceramic artist with 10 years of teaching experience. Children, adults, and beginners are all welcome to participate with confidence. Hand-building allows you to experience the joy of touching the clay with your own hands and gradually shaping a vessel. Spending time with the clay is also time to face yourself. We value carefully working with the clay rather than creating something beautiful.
• Experience an extraordinary space in a 120-year-old townhouse atelier
• The experience takes place in a 120-year-old tenement house dating back to the Meiji era, where the owner lives and works as a pottery atelier, which has been renovated. The space is a carefully crafted blend of modern design and a traditional tenement house, full of traditional charm. Time flows quietly away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Karahori area in Tanimachi 6-chome is a historic streetscape that retains the atmosphere of good old Osaka. Along with the experience, you can also enjoy the scenery of the surrounding town.
• A one-of-a-kind piece of pottery to remember your trip
• Your creations will be glazed and carefully fired using Shigaraki clay, and then shipped to your home (shipping fees apply). The time it takes for your pottery to be completed and delivered to you will be a wonderful memory of your trip. Why not get a piece that will remind you of the time you spent in that place every time you use it? It's perfect for everyday use or as a gift for family.
