- Eastnor Pottery & The Flying Potter - Potter’s wheel experience
Please allow 1.5hrs for your visit.
On arrival you’ll be offered a warm welcome from either Jon or his wife and fellow maker Sarah.
Following an easy to follow, step by step demonstration, you will share a wheel between two, having two goes each. You’ll then be offered one of three choices:
-
The ‘green’ option. We’ll recycle your attempts so your clay can be enjoyed again and again by our lovely customers.
-
Select your favourite pot to take away, air-dry and paint at home.
-
For an additional 20 per pot we’ll fire and glaze your creation. If you go for option 3, your masterpiece will need to dry thoroughly before it goes in the kiln. It will be fired twice. This whole process takes about a month, after which we’ll contact you to let you know it’s ready for collection from the Pottery. P+P can be arranged at 5 per item.
- Clay and hand tools provided
- Please bring an apron and a hand/tea towel for drying hands at the wheel
