This is a fun activity in Bankside, London

AIR CONDITIONED!
Just a 2-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 creating your own cup, bowl or ceramic vessel. Even complete beginners are often surprised by what they create in just one session.

We provide everything you need including unlimited clay, tools and aprons — just dress comfortably and trim your nails beforehand for the best experience.

At the end of the session, select your favourite pieces to be professionally glazed and kiln-fired in your choice of 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 to top your experience!

Our studio is fully equipped with air conditioning — ideal for escaping the heatwave.

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

We booked this as 2 adults and 3 teens. It was so much fun. The 2 ladies who ran the session made it fun, relaxed and supported us when we needed it. They ran the whole session very well. We all loved it. It’s harder than you think but we produced some good pieces of pottery to come back and collect in a few weeks. Thanks so much.

We had a really fun time in the class, 2 hours flew by. The teachers were great and really patient, and the instructions were very clear. A good balance between letting you try it out yourself and hands on help when you needed it. I'm really excited to see how my creations turned out when they're ready to collect!

This class was such a lovely experience. I took a friend for their birthday and we both loved it. Milo did an amazing job at teaching and assisting us. We were taught the fundamentals step by step, and then got to make 3 different small pieces. 10/10 would definitely go again. Thank you!

I loved the class with Jessie she was very good at explaining everything and happy to help with each step. However I think the last step was a bit too long and too much to remember all in one go for a newbie but like I said she was always available to help when needed. It would be nice if one item you made was included in the price and then £10 for any additional item. You would get more purchases if you did this :) thank you for the evening it was great fun and very interesting!
