Two:

1. Building - shape your pieces by hand or with molds using stoneware clay. You can also decorate using various surface techniques such as carving, fluting or stamping.

2. Glazing - next class, choose from 40+ glazes to finish your pieces.

Note: there must be at least a 10-day gap between your building and glazing sessions — your work needs time to dry and be fired first.

CLAY
We use only stoneware clay, available in several colors — white, black, and speckled beige. It is more durable that regularly used low-fire clay, doesn’t absorb moisture and is dishwasher safe.

GLAZES
We use high-quality stoneware glazes. These glazes don’t crackle and are much stronger than the low-fire glazes commonly used in Lithuania. All studio glazes are food-safe. You can choose from 40+ color palette and use pour-on or brush-on glazes, underglaze paints, engobes or glaze granules.

Your finished pieces will be ready for pickup within 2-3 weeks after your glazing class.

Everything!

All materials, tools and firings. A cup of tea, a few bisquits 💛. No extra costs for anything.

If you have no previous handbuilding experience, I’ll recommend making a bowl, a cup or something similarly simple during your first session. These simple forms make it easy to control the clay and helps you learn essential hand-building techniques. Complex or big forms such as vases or butter dishes are too difficult to make in your first few classes.

We recommend coming with short nails — long nails make handbuilding genuinely difficult, and some techniques are nearly impossible with them.

It can also help to think ahead about what you'd like to make, but we're happy to help with ideas if you arrive without one.
