FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can complete beginners join the wheel class?+

Absolutely — most people who come have never touched a wheel. Two hours is enough to throw a bowl and a small cup.

When can I collect what I make?+

Firing and glazing takes about two weeks. We can hold pieces for a month, or ship them within Nepal for a small charge.

Is the studio suitable for children?+

From about age eight for the wheel. Younger children can do hand-building sessions instead.

Lovely small studio. The two-week wait for firing caught us out as we were leaving Nepal.

Spent an afternoon on the wheel and left with two pots I am genuinely proud of.
