The main focus is on experiencing pottery. ▼Clear display of shipping costs for finished products (materials + handling fee + Yamato Transport shipping fee) Separate payment on-site Kanto to Kansai (1,650 yen per location / up to 2 people) (660 yen per person for 3 or more people) *We will deliver using Yamato Transport, which has the least damage during transport and is flexible in handling absences or moves. ★If you participate outside the recommended age range and post irrelevant reviews such as "I couldn't make it because the explanation was XX" then you will be subject to a "deletion request". ★Other - Children and elderly people with weak grip strength may not be able to make it properly. -The delivery period is approximately 90 to 150 days (varies depending on the season) -It is earthenware and not porcelain so it will mold if not properly cared for. -We will attach an instruction manual that describes how to care for it so that you can enjoy it for a long time.
The first one can be completed without any hesitation by following three steps and having the instructor and all participants simultaneously complete it in about 10 minutes.
Once you've finished practicing with your first one, it's time for the real thing. From the second one onwards, the instructor will only offer advice and will not interfere too much. Even if you fail once or twice, you have unlimited clay, so don't be afraid to make mistakes and have fun!

▼The 16 standard glazes are recommended for families and couples who want to enjoy pottery in a lighthearted way. ▼The "Wabi-Sabi & Kiln-Fired Pottery (8 types)," now only available in high-end restaurants and luxury hotels, are for those who enjoy tea and sake and understand the difference between pottery and ceramics. ▼Furthermore, you can choose options such as applying glaze to the inside and outside, or adding handles, to achieve the same finish as our affiliated artists. Please check the atmosphere of the finished products on each artist's Instagram. [Affiliated Artists] Search words: TK-Chan [Hokekyo-an], Mabo-Rie [naturallystudio]
