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.

Such a good beginners pottery class! Would highly recommend - small group, clear instructions and super fun. You're able to make as many pots as you can in the time and then just pay to keep the ones you would like, with the rest being recycled! Thank you so much :)

This was the first time my husband and I tried pottery on a throwing wheel and we had a great time. Our teacher Tilly was lovely and very helpful! With her help we have made multiple pots and bowls that we loved and requested to be glazed and that's fully due to Tilly's guidance. We would happily do this again!

We had a wonderful time at the pottery session. The atmosphere was warm, friendly, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The instructor was patient, encouraging, and made the whole experience enjoyable, even for beginners. It was a really interesting and relaxing activity, and I learned something new while having fun. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to try pottery or spend a creative and enjoyable few hours. My daughter had good time .happy Teen
