Yes, at an additional charge of £5 per item.

Do you offer one-to-one tuition?

YES! Head over to my workshops page and see

the options available for private tuition. 

Discounts available on wheel hire if private tuition is booked.

​

Note: Although your pieces will be handled with the upmost care during the firing stage, the very

nature of the pottery process means that Bramley Pottery cannot be held responsible if any

made item cracks/explodes during the firing phase.  This is a risk with all pottery making.
