商品説明
This plan is for solo travelers booking for one person.
Enjoy a relaxing pottery experience in Harajuku, Tokyo, and create your own ceramic piece using traditional hand-building techniques.
Begin in the studio’s gallery, where pottery from Tottori and Shimane introduces you to “mingei”—Japanese folk crafts rooted in local life and valued for the beauty of everyday objects. Pick up the pottery on display and explore its weight, thickness, and glaze textures. Notice how each piece feels in your hands, and use these details as inspiration for your own design.
After the instructor’s demonstration, begin shaping the clay by hand. Think about when and how you would like to use your piece, and discuss your ideas with the instructor. Make one piece of your choice, such as an “ochoko” sake cup, a matcha bowl, or a plate. Your instructor, a ceramic artist, will provide attentive guidance throughout. No previous pottery experience is needed.
Once you have finished shaping your piece, choose a glaze from the studio’s samples. The glaze gives your pottery its color and surface finish. Studio staff will complete the glazing and firing after the class.
