Frequently Asked Pottery Questions

Everything you need to know about our pottery classes and ceramic workshops

Do I need any pottery experience to join a beginner class?

No pottery experience is required! Our beginner pottery classes are designed for complete newcomers to ceramics. Our master instructors will guide you through every step, from centering clay on the pottery wheel to creating your first ceramic pieces.

What's included in the pottery workshop price?

All pottery tools, clay, glazes, and firing are included in your workshop fee. You'll also receive expert instruction from our master ceramicists and take home your finished pottery pieces. No hidden costs!

How long does it take to complete a pottery piece?

Most pottery pieces require 2-3 weeks to complete due to drying and firing processes. You'll create your piece in class, and we'll handle the drying, bisque firing, glazing, and final firing. We'll contact you when your ceramics are ready for pickup.

What pottery techniques will I learn?

Depending on your class, you'll learn pottery wheel throwing, hand-building techniques (pinch, coil, slab), ceramic glazing methods, and traditional pottery finishing techniques. Our instructors teach both traditional Persian methods and contemporary ceramic approaches.

Can I book a private pottery lesson?

Yes! We offer private pottery instruction for personalized learning. Private lessons are perfect for focused skill development, working on specific ceramic projects, or learning at your own pace with one-on-one guidance from our master ceramicists.
