Our latest class of Matt Lustre and Saggar firing held yesterday. For a change, more chaps than lasses lol. It was a great day with John Scott, Ceramics by Adrian Munday and Karen Williams Ceramics.

John got some fabulous Matt Lustre results and Adrian & Karen worked with the students to get some stunning saggar results which looked even better after a polish.

Everyone went home happy with either pots they had make or some from John and RakuMania.

Kintsugi in Wales

Broken a special pot and wish you could repair it ??

The mindful Japanese Art of Kintsugi is only a workshop away. Working with RakuMania, Clara Bethell-Sacks (www.clarakintsugi.com) is coming to Carmarthen, Wales to run 2 workshops on the 11th October 2026. There are only 8 places left in each session.

Cost £70 including all materials, tuiton and refereshments. Discount available to members of South Wales Potters.

You’re welcome to bring a small ceramic piece (under 20cm) with a simple break. Open forms and pieces with accessible joins work best, but other shapes can work too, depending on the break.
If you’re unsure whether your piece is suitable, bring it along and Clara will advise on the day if possible to use. A selection of pieces will also be available to choose from on the day or you could bring along a dish, plate etc and Clara would carefully break it to repair.

This will book out fast, so if you wish to secure your place, please email : [email protected] with you preference of morning or afternoon.
