If you’ve ever dreamed of working with clay and want to build a strong foundation, this engaging pottery workshop London at the Thames-side studio is the perfect place to start.
This two-hour session offers a hands-on introduction to pottery. You’ll learn about clay preparation, discover the tools of the trade, and practice the basics of throwing a simple cylinder on the potter’s wheel. It’s a fun, relaxed way to explore a new creative outlet while picking up essential pottery skills.
Led by expert ceramicist Mihaly, this taster class lets you create up to four different forms—including a small cup, bowl, vase, and saucer. It’s an ideal introduction to ceramics and a great first step if you're thinking of joining a longer pottery course London later on.
Mihaly is known for crafting bespoke tableware for fine dining restaurants and using unique glazes. You’ll get to choose one of his signature glazes, and he will handle the glazing and high-temperature firing of your pieces. All finished works are dishwasher, microwave, and food-safe.
After two weeks, your ceramic creations will be ready for collection, and Mihaly can store them for up to one month if needed.
Priced at £60, this all-inclusive experience is one of the most accessible pottery classes London has to offer. All materials are provided, and you’ll receive expert guidance throughout the session.

I recently attended this Pottery Taster class and it was super enjoyable. The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful. I ended up creating 5 beautiful items without any prior experience. The studio provided good quality materials and the size of the class ensured I got individual attention and help. I would definitely recommend this class
