FAQ

Can you host groups larger than 12?
Yes. We can fit up to 12 people per session, so for bigger teams we split you across back-to-back sessions on the same day, or across a couple of dates, whatever works best for you. Get in touch and we'll plan it with you.
When can we collect our pieces?
Pieces need to dry, be glazed and fired, which takes around 4–5 weeks. We'll let you know when they're ready to collect from the studio.
Can you post the pieces instead?
Yes, we can post them to your office for an extra charge.

Hola! I’m Carolina, the ceramist behind Pik Ceramics.
I fell in love with clay during lockdown and haven’t stopped since.
One of the highlights of my journey was a trip to Bali, where I did a 10-day workshop with Sarah Pike at Gaya Ceramics. It was incredibly inspiring and I learned so much.
I was also featured in London Potters magazine, where I shared a bit about my experience.
Over the years, alongside making, I realised I really enjoy teaching too. That led me to open a pottery studio within Studio J1H in Margate–Broadstairs, where I now run classes and workshops.
