Stoneware, Not Earthenware

Stoneware, Not Earthenware

Most pottery tasters in London use earthenware clay — porous and suitable only for decoration. At Blanc Ceramic, we use stoneware, the same durable clay used by high-end restaurants. This means the piece you create here will not just be a souvenir, but a fully functional item — safe for daily use in the dishwasher, microwave, or even the oven.


In this London ceramics class, you’ll get hands-on experience with the pottery wheel, guided step-by-step by our skilled instructors. With plenty of support, you’ll learn essential pottery techniques and explore the therapeutic process of working with clay.
This 2-hours workshop is perfect for complete beginners as well as those with some experience. It’s a fun, creative way to relax, get messy, and make something truly personal.

  • All clay, materials, and use of tools
