About this class
What you’ll do in the class

Glaze and rework At the
end of the course, you can choose one of your pieces and choose one of 12 glazes suitable for dishes (white, blue, grey, pink, green, turquoise and 6 effect glazes with color gradients). If you want to keep several pieces, there is an additional charge of 20 euros per piece for rework and glazing.
After drying for 7 days, we continue to process your selected pieces so that you can use them in everyday life — and glaze them in the colors of your choice. If you would also like to learn rework (turning), we recommend our 2-day pottery course with turning and turning (at intervals of 7 days).
When will my pieces be finished?
After a total of 48 hours in the fire at
- 900 degrees Celsius grinding fire and
- 1240 degrees Celsius glaze burn
Your pieces are transformed into stoneware. The glazes blend with the clay and create a long-lasting, high-quality work of art handmade by you.
Your ceramic pieces are dishwasher-safe and suitable for everyday use — for the rest of your life. Hopefully, the memories of your ceramics course will last just as long.
After 4 weeks, we will personally notify you when your items are ready for collection. If you are unable to pick up your works in person, we offer DHL delivery for an additional fee.
I'll see you at the pottery wheel.
