Create your own sake set from scratch

In this 2.5-hour workshop, Raymond, a skilled artisan in blanc ceramics, introduces participants to the captivating world of pottery.

The workshop begins with an introduction to Raymond and his work in blanc ceramics, providing context and inspiration for the attendees. This initial segment sets the tone for the session, highlighting the delicate balance of artistry and technique that defines pottery.

Central to the workshop is the hands-on experience with the pottery wheel. Under Raymond's guidance, participants learn the fundamental techniques required to shape clay. This immersive experience is both educational and therapeutic, offering a chance to connect with the tactile nature of clay.

The highlight of the session is the creation of a personal sake set. Each participant, guided by Raymond's expertise, crafts their own set on the pottery wheel. This process not only reinforces the techniques learned but also allows for personal expression through clay.

Post-workshop, Raymond takes on the task of firing and glazing the created pieces. This step is crucial in transforming the raw clay items into finished, functional ceramics. The completed sake sets will be ready for collection or posting within 2-3 weeks, serving as a lasting reminder of the skills and experiences gained during the workshop.

Participants leave with not only their crafted sake set but also a newfound appreciation and understanding of the art of pottery.
