Step into the world of paper porcelain and create your own nature-inspired wall piece — a delicate sculpture, wall relief, or sculptural light shade shaped entirely by hand.
Begin your experience with a warm welcome tea and a guided tour of our rural ceramics studio. You'll discover how paper porcelain differs from traditional porcelain, and learn how this unusual clay body can be pushed, folded, pierced, textured, and shaped into delicate organic forms.
This is a focused private workshop spread across two days — a 2-hour session to build your piece, followed by a 1-hour refinement session the next day, once the form has had time to firm up. It's designed for anyone who would like to make something truly personal and sculptural rather than a traditional functional ceramic piece.
You might create a botanical-inspired wall sculpture, an abstract organic form, a delicate relief, or a sculptural piece designed to interact with light.
Day 1 — 14:00–16:00 (2 hours)
1. Welcome Tea & Studio Tour
settle in with tea
explore our rural ceramics studio
discover different clay bodies and firing techniques
see examples of handmade porcelain sculptures and wall lights
learn about the process from raw clay to finished piece
2. Making Paper Porcelain
You'll learn:
what paper porcelain is and why it behaves differently from regular porcelain
how paper fibre changes the clay
how to mix and prepare the material
how to work with thin, delicate forms
The paper porcelain mass for your finished piece will already be prepared for the workshop, so you can immediately begin creating.
3. Creating Your Sculpture
Now you'll create your own piece using hand-building techniques. You can choose to make:
a nature-inspired wall sculpture
an abstract organic relief
a sculptural wall light shade
a layered or textured wall piece
Your creation can be up to approximately 30 × 20 cm. We'll work together throughout the process, helping you shape the structure, proportions, and initial surface details of your piece.
Day 2 — 10:00–11:00 (1 hour)
4. Refinement of the Form
Returning the next day, once the piece has firmed up slightly, we'll refine the structure, proportions, surface, and finer details together — the stage where the piece really comes into its own character.
5. Final Adjustments & Firing Plan
Before you leave, we'll make the final adjustments and prepare your piece for its journey through the kiln. Your work will then be carefully dried, fired, and glazed by us in the studio.
Within approximately 3 weeks, your finished piece will be ready for collection or shipping. Shipping is not included and will depend on the destination. For wall lights, the ceramic element is created during the workshop; electrical components are not included.

people looking for a creative and mindful experience
anyone who would like to create a unique piece for their home
