Discover the Japanese art of kintsugi at this London pottery class and create a beautiful ceramic piece to take home.
Kintsugi is an ancient art form that celebrates the Japanese philosophy of the beauty of imperfection. It involves putting broken pieces of pottery back together with gold, embracing the cracks to produce a beautiful piece of art.
In this workshop, your experienced tutor will tell you all about the history and philosophy of kintsugi whilst taking you through the process of making your own kintsugi piece.
Kintsugi is a perfect solution for a mistakenly broken treasured item, but to practice this art form you'll learn how to safely break pottery to practice mending it in the kintsugi way, without overdoing the cracks. You'll use a hammer and drill with plenty of support from your teacher.
The gold of kintsugi is what makes it so beautiful and in the next stage of your craft class, you'll learn to use a micro metal mix with epoxy resin to create your gold solution. You'll then use this solution to fix together your broken pottery pieces, creating a wonderful piece of perfectly imperfect art.
You'll finish this London kintsugi class with lots of new knowledge on kintsugi pottery and the ability to mend broken ceramic pieces. You'll also take away your own handmade piece of kintsugi art. Kintsugi is a therapeutic process and you'll feel a sense of calm and accomplishment as you finish this special workshop.
Your finished piece is only for display not for food use, microwaves, ovens or the dishwasher.

I am a craftsman from the UK who dedicates all their time to Kintsugi welds. My journey began at college in 2012 where I learnt about different types of welding. Kintsugi seemed natural to me as I enjoy the art of imperfection.
My team and I have been pioneering the Kintsugi industry, showing that we are capable of being a top performer with new innovative techniques. We wish to share our knowledge and give a memorable experience.

Lucy Isabella Freestone • Dec 2023
This was such a wonderful class. The teacher was so calm, kind and knowledgable and went out of their way to make sure each person attending was included and supported. It was a really calm mindful activity, but was also fun and lighthearted environment. I came home with a beautiful bowl and I would really like to go back for another class again with Brandon. There were two of us who went together but this would be equally as good as a solo activity or group.
Priyanka Iyer • Dec 2023
We absolutely loved the class! Brandon was a great teacher and had some interesting and entertaining anecdotes along the way. Would definitely recommend this class to anyone wanting to try something new!

Brandon was a fantastic teacher and was also able to educate us all on the history if this welding craft. He was very patient, giving everyone in the class one on one time to make sure we were all doing it correctly and learning together. He even and allowed me and my dad to stay late to work on a project. We really appreciate Brandon's kindness and we both had an excellent time in his class! thanks again :)

Jazz Devgun • Nov 2023
Had an amazing time. Was something I wanted to learn in Japan so when I found this here I was like yep that’s for me. Brandon was an amazing teacher and gave everyone in the class the attention. ????????
Khalil Akbar • Nov 2023
This was a fantastic workshop that was well worth the small amount you pay for. The venue and all the materials were on point. The teacher was amazing, knowledgeable and incredibly witty and fun. She went through the stages of the workshop in small parts so everyone understood and no one got left behind. She really did make the experience fun and we left with a beautiful piece of pottery. The workshop was a gift for a friends 50th and she absolutely loved it so I’d highly recommend it to everyone. We had no experience of this workshop so it’s for beginners and I’d like the believe that we left as pros! Kira the teacher was brilliant.

What a brilliant workshop. Brandon made us so welcome . He explained everything really clearly and we felt really looked after learning this skill of Kintsugi . Brandon is an excellent teacher . We went as a group of 6 women who were meeting up in person after a year of meeting up on line and it was a perfect activity for us. Loved it so much . Thank you

George Lennox • Nov 2023
What a great way to spend an afternoon. My girlfriend loves kintsugi pottery so I was amazed to find this class which was a perfect birthday present for her. We got to close our own bowls, smash them, then spend the remaining time repairing them which was both relaxing and satisfying. Brandon was an absolute star, and we picked up a couple of kits to give as Christmas presents too. Highly recommend
Libby Sheppard • Nov 2023
Brandon was a great facilitator: calm, friendly, efficient and really passionate about his craft. Everything we needed was provided, the instructions were easy to follow and he was there to answer questions and help out when we made mistakes. We had a great time - I took my mum as her early Christmas gift and I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to do something different and take away some cool skills!
George Barron • Nov 2023
Had an amazing time learning from Brandon, the Kintsugi GOAT. Would love to do again.

Super smooth and relaxed atmosphere, 2 hours felt like 2 minutes. Highly recommended!
Catrin • Nov 2023
Had a lovely time at the kintsugi workshop, Brandon was great and gave some history about kintsugi whilst we waited for the epoxy to dry. The class didn't feel rushed even though it was 2 hours, and we had enough time to finish and do some extra decorations if we wanted. Ended up with a great piece.
Siddarth Sharma • Nov 2023
A Complete intro class
Brandon is a very fun and intuitive teacher and made the two hours go so quickly
I would recommend this to anyone as it’s worth the value
Jessica Vanquin • Nov 2023
Great date night and really enjoyed the workshop! Thank you very much Brandon We love it.
Samantha • Nov 2023
I had a really great time at this class! The teacher, Brandon, was very skilled and really nice. Each class includes a pot, which you get to break and kintsugi back together. I also brought a dish that I had made but had been broken and he was kind enough to let me kintsugi that. I found the process really fun and therapeutic! I wish I'd known about this studio sooner as it looks like a brilliant space to do pottery, too.
Nadia • Nov 2023
An absolutely fab class! Brandon is an incredible and patient leader who taught and helped us with each step. He is very patient and we didn’t feel rushed to make our perfect kintsugi pieces.
Zara • Nov 2023
Great teacher, intriguing history talk and chilled vibes! Would definitely attend Brandon’s class again!

Huanji Li • Nov 2023
This was AMAZING experience - leant some good 金缮 Kintsugi techniques and “Zen” time~ I loved it!
Anuli Changa • Nov 2023
An underwhelming experience would have been more fun to DIY:
- We were met with confusion when we entered and someone gestured vaguely and we had to wonder around the warehouse space till we found the right table.
- we started late as we were waiting on late people
- Brandon gave more time to some people than others, when my bowl didn't fit back together properly I was told there was nothing I could do and for another person he took the time to file down the bowl to ensure it fit better, disappointing to have such different experience
- near the end Brandon started to rush us to finish
- he also mentioned during the class how boring he found Kintsugi, a rather tone deaf comment.
Georgiana Davies • Nov 2023
a wonderful way to spend an afternoon, this was most enjoyable and relaxing!
Kia Howson • Oct 2023
This class was one of the best pottery workshops I have ever been to. It was a real honour getting to share our teacher, Brandon's, talent and passion for the art of Kinsugi as well as its philosophy. I would highly recommend this class :)
Anonymised ClassBento student • Oct 2023
It was great but I hoped we had more ceramics that can actually “re-birth” again
Begum • Oct 2023
Very fun class! The teacher was very knowledgeable on the philosophy of Kintsugi art form and it made the class much more meaningful. Great venue, other pottery classes were going on at the same time, so it felt like a very creative space. I will definitely go back to the studio to do more pottery classes there. The pots provided for the class were beautiful and the instructions were very clear to create a lovely Kintsugi piece. Overall, very enjoyable experience and made me more interested in the art form. Thank you!
Antonia Johnston • Oct 2023
Really enjoyed the class, Brandon was really knowledgeable and created a fun atmosphere. I love the kintsugi bowl I created!
Dean Martin • Oct 2023
Brandon was excellent! Loved the course, the pace and the help along the way. Thank you
Anonymised ClassBento student • Oct 2023
The class is evenly paced since you have to strictly follow the timings set out by Brandon, and it was quite fun to see your progress little by little. If you are not too artistically inclined, I would recommend this class since Brandon individually guides each student with their piece.
Vivian Nguyen • Oct 2023
Amazing class! Brandon is such a funny and inspiring teacher. It was worth the date night couldn't have enjoyed it more. Thank you again for this experience xx
Samantha Hutchings • Oct 2023

Priya Raj • Oct 2023
I booked a Kintsugi Pottery class as I thought it would be a cute date night idea after seeing it on TikTok. The venue was really easy to find and was less than a 5 minute walk from the train station. Our class was taught by Kira who was super friendly, helpful and had good knowledge on the art form. Also I love how all materials were provided and there was a good selection of pieces to choose from to work with and then take home with you! This class is perfect for beginners and I would definitely recommend it. I wouldn't say either of us are 'artsy' or 'crafty' people but we really enjoyed it and would love to do something like this again!

Brune Levi-Hamza • Oct 2023
Brandon was such a great teacher; kind and patient, he guided us through every step while making the entire 2 hours very entertaining; with fun insights as well as the actual history of the craft and the culture it stems from. His approach is supportive and reassuring, leaving room for mistakes and allowing us to experiment. I love the ceramic bowls we got to take home, it feels like such a unique piece and I am pretty proud to have the power to do it again on my own! All in all; incredible value here and it doubles as a really good time to spend alone, on a date, or with friends, it's super versatile.

The venue was easy to find and clean and tidy. Its a working studio and nice to see artists doing their projects.
The class tools were easy to use and we made a beautiful dish that we could take home on the day in our 2 hr slot.
There are other courses available and I will definitely be checking these out.

Anonymised ClassBento student • Oct 2023
Attended the class unfortunately an hour and half late, but the host was very kind and accommodated to the time we had left, and let us stay whist he cleared up. Very calming and fun activity for a group of friends or a date. Finding the venue was a little hard, which could be addressed in a message beforehand, however was not the biggest issue. All in all great experience and would do again

Brandon is a great teacher. His passion comes through as he teaches and helps people to get the basics of the craft.
His instructions are clear and easily understandable. Enjoyed every minute of it.
Didn’t even notice how fast time went by as I was focusing so much on the piece.
I highly recommend the course.
Good fun and we all can have a perfectly imperfect bowl at the end.

Really enjoyed making the artwork and was encouraged really well.
It was a lovely way to spend the evening!
Sara Hjortstig • Sep 2023
Initially I thought it was very slow, we started way after it was supposed to which was annoying. But, I did really enjoy the course once it got going! There was something very calming and lovely about the process. Our teacher Kira was really great, she guided us in a very nice way and was just lovely while sharing some facts about the history of Kintsugi. The best thing about Kintsugi is that you can be really bad at it and the end result is still very pretty! I love my little bowl.

Brandon was an excellent, patient and knowledgeable tutor. I learned not only how to do kintsugi but the philosophy behind it. I would recommend his class and I intend to take it again .
May Friedler • Sep 2023
This was a great workshop, Bandon is a warm and friendly teacher he made the technique simple, and we all followed his instructions.
He was professional in his approach; all the materials were set up for us before arrival and the class was run in a professional and friendly manner.
Highly recommended.

Brandon was a great instructor. I heard about this all the way in Oman and signed up to do the course. It was an efficient use of the time we had and quite entertaining. Definitely recommend it. Thank you
Anonymised ClassBento student • Sep 2023
This was a really great workshop. The teacher was so nice and he made it all look easy. We got a lot of information while working on our Kintsugi Pottery and the time flew by. Love my bowl that I took home with me and I can’t wait to try this on my own.

Rebecca Eastwood • Sep 2023
Brandon was patient, thorough with his demonstrations and clear with his intructuons, very knowledgeable, and made the class fun. Be prepared to leave class a little bit glittery.

Absolutely loved the class.
Although venue changed unexpectedly, the new spot was in easy walking distance from the train station. Venue was a pottery studio, so was spacious & probably a great teaser for anyone wanting to start pottery-wheel lessons!
We had a wide wonderful selection of pottery items to choose fromselecting my final choice was tough, but that is a good thing!
Brandon is a great teacher. He is infinitely patient and kind and teaches at just the right pace. I would recommend this is anyone who is interested in Kintsugi.
Just a pity, that the kintsugi kits for doing it yourself at home, were out of stock.
Chi • Sep 2023
What an amazing experience. The teacher was very caring and personal. It was great to learn about the history of kinsugi and create my own ceramic. Thank you for this wonderful experience
Rishita Parmar • Sep 2023
I had an amazing experience in my kintsugi class! The teacher was fantastic - not only did they skillfully guide us through the art, but they also added a touch of humor to make it fun. Their explanation of the history behind kintsugi was insightful. I truly enjoyed every moment of it!
Euan Enright • Sep 2023
A big thank you to the super helpful, genuine and great teacher, Brandon.

Bhavika • Sep 2023
A really well organised event. Really enjoyed Kira’s energy. A nice sized group as well, everyone was really friendly. So glad we did this, a really different type of activity to gather with friends or even as a date night idea. I booked this even for my sister’s birthday and she absolutely loved it. Timing didn’t feel rushed at all and everything was explained really clearly for beginners. Had such a fun time and we all loved our perfectly imperfect creations. Thanks Kira
Poppy • Sep 2023
We had such a great time! Brandon was a very clear and lovely teacher - the class was brilliant and we love our bowls!

Emma Squire • Sep 2023
We had such a good time. We both were a little nervous as this is out of our comfort zone, but Brandon was very helpful and made the whole process easy to follow. It was really interesting learning about the history of Kintsugi and how it links to the mental health aspect is cool. It was a very calm environment with a friendly group of people. We are both happy with our bowls, and would recommend to anyone even if you have no experience of this kind of thing.
Thanks again!

Paul • Sep 2023
Brandon was a great teacher, clearly explaining what we needed to do and how to do it. I think we all came away happy we everything we broke then repaired! A really enjoyable class.
Carmelina Critcher • Sep 2023
Great hands-on workshop by Brandon. Lots of bowls/plates to choose from. We were definitely spoilt for choice! It was fun learning to break the items before putting them back together the Kintsugi way. I liked that the repairs were done in stages, with everyone doing the same steps altogether so that Brandon could control the timings. I was quite proud of my plate and it now sits on the mantlepiece for everyone to admire!
Anonymised ClassBento student • Sep 2023
The class is well-paced and Brandon is very friendly. Coming home with a beautiful piece of kintsugi is very satisfying. The craft itself requires some technique but is the right amount of challenge for me.
Massimiliano Papi • Sep 2023
Very fun and interesting. Open to all, even for someone not very crafty like myself.
Brandon is great at explaining and engaging with the class.

David • Sep 2023
Really fun, well instructed, and relaxing class. Brandon made sure that everyone was progressing at the same time and stressed the important things to get right as we went along. There was plenty of repetition within the lesson to really absorb the techniques before we left. At the end I walked out with a beautiful piece of kintsugi pottery.
Latoya Henry • Sep 2023

Harriet Cullum • Sep 2023
We loved this class. The setting was great, high quality materials and Brandon as a teacher was also passionate and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
Michael Warner • Sep 2023
Fantastic class, would give 6 stars if I could. Brandon is not only a knowledgeable and clear teacher, he's also a really nice guy! Made the class fun even when just chatting.
The class itself was easy enough for complete beginners and really enjoyable. The quality of the ceramics provided was obvious too and and a mark of quality. There was no cut-off at the end and Brandon was happy to help those still struggling to finish their pieces.
I highly recommend the class to anyone.
Anonymised ClassBento student • Sep 2023
The class was quite enjoyable, I don't believe brandon has much he can improve on as the entire process was clear and concise and there was consistent communication through out
Amanda Chee • Sep 2023
My friends and I had a great time. Brandon was a good teacher and was very entertaining. Would recommend the class to other friends.

I loved this experience and would highly recommend it to anyone interested. Brandon is amazing! He patiently teaches you and waits for all your techniques to finish and conduct good interaction, answers all your questions and you get to keep the bowl!
Marie-Claire Thomas • Sep 2023
Great course, lovely tutor - it was great to also learn about the background to the artwork as well as to learn practical skills
Anton • Sep 2023
This was a fantastic experience. Fun, educational, relaxing, and very different.
The two hour session absolutely flew by, which is a testament to how much we enjoyed ourselves!
Our teacher / guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable, friendly, patient and funny. He gave clear directions, and supported everyone in the class to have the best experience and go home with marvellous pieces of unique art. The venue was perfect - a real ceramics working space, which I look forward to going back to.
Also excellent value for money, given the quality of the bowl we were able to choose (to take home) the materials, and amount of 1-2-1 support. The class size was spot on.
I’ll definitely be recommending this class to friends, and have already looked at buying a home kit from Brandon when they’re next available, as the way it slowed my mind down is something I need more of in my life!
Thanks to Brandon and Jackie Chi (woof!)
Sara Sweeney • Sep 2023

Keira (not sure if I spelled her name correctly)- she's amazing, patient, knowledgable, friendly and very sweet. The tone was set from the beginning, it really felt like a safe place to learn, met new people from all walks of life. Everyone who attended was super nice. I would definitely go again.

Such a fun and interesting afternoon - I can't recommend it highly enough! Brandon was so patient and unflappable, explaining clearly what to do, when, and how (lots of respect for time and gravity!). He is very experienced and it was great to learn a bit about the history and philosophy of kintsugi as well as making a piece ourselves which we could then take home. Brandon's enthusiasm and energy was infectious, and he was able to give each of us in the group individual attention as well as building and maintaining a fun team dynamic. Thanks so much Brandon - can't wait to break/make my next creation!

There was a great selection of bowls to choose from to make it really feel like your own work, and the lesson behind the artwork was incredible to learn and feel. Feels as though a lot of life stress was released from working on Kitsugi. Could not reccomend enough to anyone who is thinking about going.

We really enjoyed the afternoon and appreciated being able to continue for a bit longer after the end of the class to finish our pots.
It was a very hot day and we thought it might have been nice if some refreshments had been provided.
But we had a great time and were very pleased with our pots!

Overall great fun. Thank you
Alex Boyce • Jun 2023
Brandon was excellent. Super attentive and really passionate about the class. We really enjoyed the experience and think it was very well priced. Actually, I would have been happy to have paid a bit extra for a slightly smaller class size as Brandon was stretched slightly thin given we had a sold out session.
Realy loved the piece that we took home and I would highly recommend to others for both a date night activity but also a work / team function.

This was a good experience! I appreciated Brandon sharing the principles of Kintsugi throughout the session. Despite it being a large class, I felt that I had sufficient individual attention from Brandon. The venue is bright and airy (though the background music at some points of the class made it a bit hard to hear instructions). I would recommend this class for a beginner.
