Join our full-day Ceramic Teapot Making Workshop and discover the art of crafting teapots from scratch. Delve into the fascinating world of teapot design and explore the science behind their construction.

Our instructor will guide you throughout the day, covering every aspect of teapot creation. You will learn the secrets of teapot design and understand form and function. Discover the principles of balance, ergonomics, and aesthetics that make a teapot a vessel and a work of art.

Get hands-on with the pottery wheel and master the techniques required to create stunning teapot forms. With our guidance, you can bring your vision to life, transforming a mound of clay into a functional masterpiece.

You'll learn the art of crafting handles, spouts, and lids that enhance functionality and add a touch of artistry to your teapots. Gain an understanding of the materials, glazes, and firing techniques that bring out the best in your creations.

The workshop includes all the necessary materials, such as clay, glaze, and firing. You can glaze your own teapot by joining Clay Club, or we will glaze it for you in your preferred colour from our wide range of glazes.

If you're interested in dedicating more time to practising,  Clay Club hosts regular sessions throughout the week.

To attend, it’s necessary that you are confident on the wheel. This is not a workshop for beginners.

Please wear closed-toe shoes, comfortable clothing and nothing you fear getting dirty (clay washes out, but it's best not to take chances).
Long nails and pottery don't mix! It is highly recommended that yours are trimmed short for the session.
Please bring a towel large enough to cover your lap.

* The Studio ensures every effort is taken to guarantee the survival of your work through the unpredictable ceramics process. However, the Studio can not be liable for potential losses in the kiln firing.*
