Make Your Own Kurinuki Pottery Cup Workshop

Uncover the beauty of this Japanese carving technique in this unique workshop.



2 hours Class size 1 to 6 guests    

  $99 (Afterpay available)

Discover the ancient art of Kurinuki, a Japanese hand-carving technique that embraces imperfection and celebrates natural, organic forms. In this immersive workshop, you’ll start with a solid block of clay and carve it into a one-of-a-kind cup that reflects your unique vision. No two Kurinuki cups are ever the same, making this a perfect experience for beginners or those looking to unleash their creative side.
We teach in small groups of no more than 8 and encourage you to have as much fun as you can in two hours!
Enjoy a relaxing atmosphere with complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits to keep you fuelled while you create.

Hi Mud Lovers!
I’m Dan, and The Northern Pottery is my clay-covered corner of Hornsby, built around creativity, community and the simple joy of making. With over 20 years of experience working with clay, I’ve created a space where people of all skill levels can slow down, get their hands dirty and enjoy the rhythm of the process.
From wheel throwing to handbuilding and everything in between, our classes are relaxed, welcoming and always just the right amount of muddy. There’s plenty of tea, good chats and no pressure to be perfect — just come along and make something!
Hope to see you in the studio soon.
