Pottery Experience

In this plan, you can make a small dish with the instructor!
Take necessary amount of clay out from a large chunk of clay and gradually extend and form it.
It is made by hand (Tebineri) without using an electric potter's wheel, so you don't have to worry about the collapse during making it. Anyone can enjoy making a small dish. If you wish, you can also color the finished work white.

After a few weeks of drying, your work will be glazed and baked by your instructor.
It depends on the season, but it takes about 1 month.
After that, the instructor will pack and ship it.
※The procedure of experience might be changed.
※Your work will be sent by cash on delivery.
※Your work cannot be sent overseas.
