Handbuilding Workshop: Create a ceramic sushi set (July)

Learn how to create your very own sushi set

Sushi began to be prepared, to its origins in China, as a method of preservation of the fish in rice. When the method arrived in Japan, the rice was also consumed together with the fish. By accelerating the fermentation process of rice by adding vinegar, sushi became a fast, light, and nutritious meal and gained worldwide popularity.

Presenting this rich and healthy dish in exclusive ceramic tableware adds even more value to it. The ceramic sushi set will be like a delicate jewel in your kitchen, combining the classic lines that define it with your personal creative touch.

In the workshop dedicated to the sushi set you will create, surprisingly easy, pieces that will stand out in beauty and oriental minimalism.

It is a very rewarding experience, as the versatility of the clay and the construction techniques with slabs and pinching allow you to obtain quick and aesthetically very beautiful results.

It is a highly recommended workshop whether it is your first contact with clay or to give a creative experience as a present to someone dear or to yourself.
