Henri welcomes you to his workshop, where you can discover the art of throwing, one of the many techniques involved in working with clay - a fun and soothing activity that you're sure to love. You're sure to enjoy this ceramics workshop with friends, as a couple or as a mother/daughter get-together, for example!
Course of the workshop (2h30) :
- Explanation of good ceramic throwing practices and gestures.
- Learn the basics of centering the clay, drilling and mounting it to create your own pieces.
- You will be guided step-by-step by Henri, who will take care to perfect your creation if you wish.
- At the end of the workshop, you'll have made 1 or 2 pieces (depending on your skills), which you'll be able to pick up a few days later.
- Henri will finalize your creations, which will only be biscuit-baked (first bake only). At the end of the session, if you wish, you can opt for enameling (second firing) for a small additional fee per piece.
For yourself or as a gift, what could be better than making your own ceramic pieces from A to Z and learning the basics of the potter's wheel? Don't hesitate!

Henri loves his art and talks about it with passion. After a little theory and a presentation of his creations and others, we moved on to the practical part of the tour. For the first time, I was pleased with myself. Very satisfied

Course very well explained, with pedagogy and patience, listening and understanding, in our turn it is necessary to be vigilant and memorize from the beginning, each gesture, position of the hands and fingers in order to be autonomous and carry out in the good way our works, the goal being the quality and not the number of works carried out...

We enjoyed a one-to-one session, with the expertise and knowledge of an enthusiast. This convinced us to come back and learn more about throwing techniques and glaze application. We highly recommend it!

Henri is super nice and above all passionate! My mom and I had a great time, we learned the basics of ceramics and were able to practise our throwing skills, culminating in our own creation (well guided by Henri): two bowls to be picked up soon, in short it was topitop 😊

We got to see how ceramics work. More than just practical, we also learned a lot about ceramics in general. You can also see that the craftsman is very passionate about the field, which is a pleasure. It was friendly and fun.
