This is a fun activity in Bankside, London

Just a two-minute walk from London Bridge station, discover the calming joy of pottery at Maison S.Sommet.

Perfect for complete beginners, this relaxed 2-hour wheel throwing class is a chance to unwind, get messy and create your own functional ceramics in our warm and welcoming studio. Guided step by step by our expert teachers, you'll learn the foundations of wheel throwing before making your own cup, bowl or ceramic vessel. Even complete beginners are often surprised by what they create in a single session.

We provide everything you need including unlimited clay, tools and aprons — just dress comfortably and trim your nails beforehand for the best experience. The studio is fully air conditioned, so it stays comfortable whatever the weather is doing outside.

At the end of the session, choose your favourite pieces to be professionally glazed and kiln-fired in either our signature Cobalt Blue or Clear stoneware glaze, for £10 per piece. Finished ceramics are food-safe, microwave-safe and dishwasher-safe, and are usually ready for collection within 4-5 weeks.

Perfect for date nights, birthdays, friends or solo creatives looking to try something new in London. Bring your own favourite drinks along to top off the experience.

Clay, music, good company and your new favourite mug.

As a gift for my wife's birthday, i saw this pottery lesson in the internet near London Bridge Station. Very good review and i was not dissappointed to my choice. We enjoyed the pottery lesson with our teacher Anita(dont know if i spell correctly, sorry if i made a mistake).She was very professional, very approchable and giving all her knowledges/technics about pottery. You can see her passion with it. It was a nice experience. In the videos you taught it was easy but in the reality, it was not. Very fun experience..

Tilly was a great, very helpful instructor. The taster sessions was so much fun, and the perfect way to dip our toe in, and try pottery. You are taught how to make a bowl, mug, cup, jug or vase. Any shape really, the instructors are lovely and help you center or shape it the way you want. I really couldn't recommend this session enough!

Such a great class, I booked a private class with some colleagues (mostly beginners) and we had a brilliant time and learnt so much in the two hours!! Very excited to pick up our creations in a few weeks, would highly recommend. Saz was a wonderful teacher!

From the moment we arrived, Tanvi was very welcoming and explained each step thoroughly. She was very funny and made us feel at ease, especially since it was our first class! Tanvi was very helpful and answered all our questions. We enjoyed shaping our clay and we highly recommend this experience - thank you Tanvi!
