Summary // Students will learn how to center, open and pull up 2 pieces using the potter's wheel. They will create a traditional Japanese inspired Matcha Chawan mixing & pouring bowl and a Chasen ceramic whisk holder. They will also learn how to finish their work and personalize them with the help of the many textures and tools available at the studio. 

Technical aspects:

- Learn to shape a cylinder on the potter's wheel, open into a bowl and shape a curve. 

- Learn how to shape the perfect height and width for your Chawan mixing bowl. 

  • Learn how to shape an elegant and functional pouring spout. 
  • Learn how to create intricate curves and angles so your ceramic holder fits your whisk nicely. 

- Add decorative elements such as textures, carvings, stamps & relief that fit your personality.
