Immerse yourself in the art of coiling with this two-part workshop designed for those who want to explore ceramic hand-building on a larger scale. Over two sessions, each lasting 3 hours, you’ll learn the fundamentals of the coiling technique and create your own stunning, large-scale piece.

07.06 from 14.00-17.00: Learn & Start Building

In the first session, you’ll be guided through the basics of the coiling technique, a versatile method of hand-building with clay. With expert instruction, you’ll start shaping your design—whether it’s a large vase, a spacious bowl, a striking planter, or a sculptural masterpiece.

08.06 from 11.00-14.00: Finish & Decorate

In the second session, you’ll refine and complete your creation. After perfecting the shape, you’ll have time to decorate your piece using carving, texturing, or adding decorative elements to give it your personal touch.

Important Note on Firing Times

Due to the size of your work, firing times will be longer than usual, ranging from 4 to 8 weeks. Once complete, you’ll have a durable, functional, and beautiful ceramic piece that showcases your creativity.

This workshop is perfect for beginners and experienced makers alike, offering a chance to work on a large, impactful project while learning a timeless ceramic technique. All materials and guidance are included—just bring your enthusiasm!
