Top Campania Pottery Classes

I had the absolute best time at this pottery works. I had the workshop to myself and it was so personalized! It was fascinating to learn the history of ceramics on Ischia and then I was able to make a flower vase and paint a tile. I cannot wait to see how they turn out! I would highly recommend this activity as it is so unique to the island and area of Italy and so different than any of the other typical tourist stops.

The workshop is run by a friendly artist who creates the atmosphere very familiar and creative. We got some insights into pottery and we were offered many different materials. An experience that cannot be missed on Ischia!

This was a fantastic afternoon experience for me and my wife. It was our second time in Ischia and our first time clay sculpting. Our host Marzia was excellent, giving us a deep insight in to the history of clay making on the Island. I would encourage anyone to try their hand at this, it was really enjoyable, we made trinket cases that will be shipped over in due time. 5 stars.

Marzia was very nice with us, she explained to my daughter and me all the techniques and she also wrapped our pottery in a very solid package and delivered it directly to our hotel. Thank you so much, Marzia!

Applause and compliments to the structure. I attended a hen party in this dream place, we were welcomed in the best possible way, with attention to the smallest details, sublime food, an explosion of flavors with every bite. The experience with clay was unique and exciting, the owner of a unique delicacy and kindness, a breathtaking view. Absolutely highly recommended!

Ornella and her daughter were the perfect experience hosts. I had an absolute blast learning different approaches of ceramic making, and I was extremely happy with the results! On top of that Cilento was a super peaceful pearl of a place, hiding a lot of great street art that Ornella was lovely enough to show me after our lunch break. Lunch was also great, consisting of pasta with homemade tomato sauce and fresh basil leaves. I just cannot reccomend this experience enough!

The manager was very friendly and very well prepared. After a short introduction to the theoretical part, she showed her skills and helped us with our own design. The atmosphere was familiar and we were provided with many materials and utensils. An experience that brings you closer to the island. I can only recommend the course.

I had a lovely morning with Marzia practicing and learning about some of the vast history and varied pottery techniques. It was a wonderful experience relaxing with the clay, painting a tile and spending some time getting to know more about the local life on Ischia. Highly recommended, great for all ages and experience levels!

The class took place in an historic atelier of the island with Marzia. She is funny and she brings in the lesson some heritage from her father, also a clay artisan. I created my own terracotta tile, I would repeat the experience.

My first experience with clay in Ischia, where the art of ceramics has a centuries-old tradition, was special and unique! You will be able to experiment your creativity, both with modeling and painting, discovering the main material and techniques. The staff is super welcoming and knowledgeable, able to guide both those who already have knowledge and those starting from scratch. You will be fascinated by this world thanks to the history of the family in the creation of ceramic objects and you will have the opportunity to take home your very personal creation (in my case the ashtray octopus you see in the picture)!

It was my first experience with clay and I will certainly keep trying. I was shown different techniques and also playing with colors was very interesting. It was a very pleasant atmosphere with a lot of ease. You were also allowed to learn through mistakes, which was very sympathetic to me. I had NO confidence but after 3hrs had created two vessels and a mask, through loving explanations. I was also allowed to paint a plate at the end. Pure fun with success. Highly recommended !

We had a wonderful pottery experience, Marzia was a very patient and creative teacher, giving us ideas and techniques to create our own pottery masterpiece. We really wanted to find out more about the history of ceramics in this area of Ischia and Marzia our teacher was very knowledgeable of the rich history of this beautiful island. It was a unique experience and one we won't forget we wished we could have stayed longer. We took the option to have our items shipped to us after they have been fired in the oven. We would highly recommend this experience.
