Pottery Studio Fuwari

FUWARI Pottery-Making Classes We open handmade pottery class in English for beginner ,and semiprofessional. make your pots by yourself

Reviewed By invis_lady

I had a great time doing a couple of simple pieces, one hand-built and the other on the wheel. The lady told me they run their pottery wheels in the opposite direction, so there's the added challenge of swapping hands if you're a ceramicist from elsewhere! The studio is run by a couple, both are ceramicists. The English instructions were worth the extra money especially for the wheel. There are heaps of studios in Mashiko that offer various lessons, but very few in English. Plus the other bonus is they open at 9am, so if you have a short timeline this helps. I really enjoyed the bicycle ride from the station (rent bikes there, was about 700 yen for half a day). It's through mostly dead flat fields, an easy ride of about 2km to Pottery Studio Fuwari. Tips: 1) Keep mouth closed while riding. There are lots of tiny flying insects and my clothes got covered in them. 2) JR rail pass gets you freely to Shimodate, after which it's 780 yen each way on the Moka Railway. Moka rail is old-school, the trains are loud and the same complicated ticketing system I found on regional buses is in effect. Trains are hourly, tear yourself away from the ceramics shops with plenty of time to spare. 3) Preferably, don't bring big luggage to Mashiko unless you're staying here. The biggest local coin lockers are kinda square, and will not fit anything more than a small rolling suitcase on the longest measurement.
