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.

Pottery wheel throwing takes you away from the day-to-day world. The class was set in a relaxing environment and was led by a super-supportive teacher. Wheel pottery is both easy to get started with but hard to master, and fun to explore with others.

The teacher was great, gave very detailed step by step instructions and came around to help individually. I loved the experience and will definitely go again! I used a gift card and it was very easy and straightforward to use.

I enjoyed the workshop though we didn't end up with any pieces that we wanted fired and glazed. There was 14 participants to one teacher which seemed a lot for a beginner session and my friend and I felt that when we needed help she was caught up with another person so we had to either wait or try and get on with it so it might be helpful to have an extra pair of hands to support people where possible.

This was so good! The teacher was very patient and positive, and was ready to jump in whenever things got out of hand. I was surprised by how passable our pots were by the end! It was nice that the class was BYOB, although I neglected my drink mostly because I was having so much fun.
