Q: How long will you keep my finished pieces?
We can store your finished pieces for one month from the date of our collection email. Due to limited storage space, pieces not collected within this period may be disposed of.

Welcome to Cernamic
Welcome to our Stoke Newington studio! 🏺✨
Get comfy, grab an apron, and get ready to get creative!
Clay, tools and aprons are all provided, so all you need to bring is yourself. Feel free to bring your favourite drink, too! ☕️🥤
📍 Finding us:
We’re right next to Stoke Newington Station, behind the black gates. Look out for us just behind the gates!
Choose Your Piece
Choose a cup or plate to paint, or upgrade to one of our larger shapes for an additional fee.
Get Creative
Pick up your brushes and bring your design to life with our ceramic paints. Take your time, get creative and let your imagination run wild — our tutor will be there to guide you along the way.
Ready for the Kiln
Once you’ve finished painting, we’ll dip your piece in transparent glaze and fire it. Your finished creation will be ready to collect in approximately 4–5 weeks, and we’ll email you when it’s ready!
(As each piece is hand-painted, natural variations in paint colour and finish are to be expected. In rare cases, pieces may crack or break during firing.)
- A minimum of 4 participants is required for the class to go ahead. If fewer than 4 are booked, we may cancel or reschedule.
- No cancellations or rescheduling are permitted. This does not apply if we cancel the class.

Recent reviews of BYOB Pottery Painting Workshop
- 5/5 from Hannah Martin, attended Oct 2026: We loved the pottery painting session, such a laidback atmosphere and the teacher was super helpful! It’s great value for money.
- 5/5 from Louisa Graham, attended Jun 2026: Had the best evening pottery painting. The teacher was so lovely and welcoming and helped with any questions we had. Loved the setting it was very relaxing with some nice music in the background and could bring your own drinks which was perfect! Will defo be back to potentially do the pottery making.
- 5/5 from Jana Al-Mughrabi, attended Apr 2026: The experience was fantastic! Really loved the studio, our teacher was well informed and was around to answer any queries. We all really enjoyed it and would love to come back!
- 4/5 from Sarah Kunz, attended Apr 2026: A nice class but the teachers could have given a bit more support
- 3/5 from Nour Atik, attended Mar 2026: Nathalie was really kind and we enjoyed the activity! However, we wish we had more time, by the time she finished explaining we barely had an hour which was insufficient:(but would definitely go back again. The items that are part of the package were limited, people who came before us took the bowls so we did not have options other than plates, that was also a bummer. The overall vibe, studio and people were chill and nice which helped us stay focused on coloring our items
- 5/5 from Hannah Dennie, attended Nov 2025: Natalie was really friendly and the space was great, lovely evening.
- 3/5 from Nery Lohia, attended Jul 2025: It was okay.
- 5/5 from Megan Savides, attended May 2025: What a fabulous evening, the teachers weee great and so helpful! Can’t wait to see our final products.

A rare and hidden pottery Eden in the heart of east London, Stoke Newington. Cernamic studio in Stoke Newington was founded, created, and built during the first lockdown of the pandemic, through hard work, blood, sweat, and tears. Nam and Susi two professional ceramicists run this fun and affordable pottery studio open for everyone from all walks of life.Nam Tran is an award-winning practitioner who gives lectures and demos at universities and exhibits internationally. A ceramic lecturer and head of the departments in design and multi-media with Kensington and Chelsea college. Nam specialises in wheel-thrown raku, bringing years of experience and craftsmanship to every object made.Tran's work is focused primarily on exploring the physical properties of clay and material experimentation is a strong characteristic of his work. He has been developing making enclosed forms that are much stronger than open forms and therefore resonates well with the alternative firing technique he uses. His work is dominated by thrown pieces that subtly echo the urban roots and conceptual design. Nam Tran first made pots as a teenager on a wheel in his own bedroom and remembers being captivated by the experience. With his unique alternatives methods and approach to ceramics, Nam Tran identifies rules and manipulates and bends them.
