Derryn reviewed: Raku - learn the exciting art of rapid Japanese glaze firing

"I thoroughly enjoyed the raku firing day! We fired 4 pots each and Richard gave us so much information for each stage. We were immersed in the action and the process and some of the pots were just beautiful and surprising - as raku is. Highly recommended."

Potterydayz responded:

"A pleasure to see you here again Derryn. Many thanks for taking the time to put up a review, I'm delighted that you enjoyed the day. See you again I hope. Richard "

Angela reviewed: Raku - learn the exciting art of rapid Japanese glaze firing

"Richard created a fantastic day for our small group of 6 people. He is a seasoned teacher, seamlessly moving between explaining the techniques to novices (me) as well as answering detailed technical questions from very experienced potters (my friend). I was delighted to come away from the day with 4 vessels to display at home. It was a thoroughly enjoyable day, I'm keen to return. "

Potterydayz responded:

"A pleasure to spend time Rakuing with you recently. I look forward to seeing you here again at Potterydayz. "

"Richard, the tutor was very knowledgeable and friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed the course, hadn’t realised how much there was to Raku. Will certainly book another course. "

Potterydayz responded:

"Many thanks for the review. Like the subject of ceramics generally, Raku is extensive and continues to develop. Delighted you enjoyed the course, I look forward to seeing you again soon."

Jenny Hainsworth reviewed: Raku - learn the exciting art of rapid Japanese glaze firing

"The Raku course was really enjoyable. We were involved with the whole process all the way through and it was so interesting to learn more about this. We were able to glaze and fire 4 pots in total using different Raku techniques - the exciting part being when the pots were revealed! It was a wonderful day and would definitely recommend to others who want to have this Raku experience. Thank you Richard."

Potterydayz responded:

"Thank you for the recommendation and taking time out to post a review. I'm delighted you enjoyed your Raku experience. Hope to see you both again soon. "
