A sculptural exploration of form and texture
Begin your experience with a warm welcome tea as you settle into our rural ceramics studio. We start with a short tour of the space, a gentle introduction and explore existing MoonTree vases for inspiration — exploring form, proportion and functionality of each vase length.
This masterclass is a slow, creative session designed for absolute beginners as well as returning makers. Working with hand-building techniques, you will shape your own MoonTree vase inspired by the quiet elegance of sculptural minimalism.
You will leave the studio with newly gained skills in shaping, refining, and finishing this gorgeous functional vase — and, once glazed, a beautiful object ready for your home or for gifting will be yours to keep.
