Make Your Own Fruit Bowl – Handbuilding Pottery Class

Duration: 2 hours
Included: Clay and materials for 1 piece with glaze and firing
Language: English

Shape something both beautiful and functional in this hands-on pottery workshop at Torro Studio in Zurich. Designed for beginners and curious creatives alike, this session introduces you to the fundamentals of hand building while guiding you through the creation of your very own ceramic fruit bowl. During the class, you’ll learn how to work with clay using intuitive hand-building techniques, shaping and refining your piece with a focus on form, balance, and surface. Whether you’re drawn to organic, sculptural aesthetics or clean, minimal designs, you’ll be supported in bringing your personal vision to life. This workshop is perfect for anyone looking to explore ceramics in a relaxed, creative setting while making a piece you’ll actually use at home. It’s also a great introduction before diving deeper into our studio membership or more advanced classes.

At the end of the session, you’ll have your own handmade fruit bowl, which we will carefully dry, glaze with a transparent finish, and kiln-fire in our studio. Your finished piece will be ready for collection in approximately 4–5 weeks. If you’d like to personalize your piece further, you can book an additional glazing session to choose and apply your own color finish.
