Description

A creative journey into the heart of ceramics in Montpellier

Immerse yourself in the welcoming world of the Atelier Ceramain for a unique creative break lasting 1 hour 30 minutes. Upon arrival, explore the venue and enjoy an accessible introduction to working with clay and color.

Your workshop begins with the preparation of two earthenware coasters. To ensure an elegant and precise result, the outline of the pattern is pre-printed using a screen-printed outline. You will then learn the delicate technique of enamel outlining: using a dropper, you will carefully apply the colored enamels inside the outlined areas.

In a small, friendly group of 1 to 5 people (aged 15 and over), you will benefit from personalized guidance to choose your Mediterranean-inspired color combinations.

At the end of the session, your coasters will remain at the workshop to dry and then be fired at high temperature. The time required for drying and firing is one month. You can then come and collect your unique creations on site or request that they be sent by post (additional fee to be paid on site).

Fellow tourists: opt for delivery of your creation

Your creation will be ready for collection one month after the workshop (drying/firing time).
