R L Foote Design Studio welcomes you into our light-filled creative workshop where passionate expert Ryan Foote and his skilled team will teach you how to pour, de-mould, and clean up your own ceramics!
You'll get to pick from a range of the R L Foote Design Studio mould shapes to make a small selection of pieces of your choice. This includes a sake cup, a large cup, and a plate.
Slipcasting is a method of making ceramics with a liquid clay body, which is poured into a plaster mould and allowed to form a layer on the inside walls of the mould before emptying the remaining slip and de-moulding once dry.
