● The class

Four evenings at the wheel to throw a matching set of mugs: centre, pull tall walls, trim a foot and pull handles that sit right in the hand.

How the session runs.

Three steps, at your pace. Your tutor stays beside you the whole time.

Step 01

Throw the set

Weigh out even balls of clay and throw four cylinders to the same height and width.

Step 02

Trim and handle

Trim feet when leather-hard, then pull and attach handles that suit your grip.

Step 03

Glaze and fire

Choose a glaze from the studio wall; we fire the set and you collect it two weeks later.

Before you arrive.

Everything for the class is already on the bench. Here is what you will leave with, and the little you need to bring.

What you’ll make

A set of four glazed mugs with pulled handles.

Throws every morning before the first class arrives.

I drink my coffee from one of them every morning. Still slightly smug about it.
