RACHEL BYASS CERAMICS reviews

Lesley Dike reviewed: Pottery throw down

"Great morning. Full explanation with demonstration. All of us expertly guided. A miracle that we all managed to make a pot or a bowl. Thanks so much, Rachel "

Steve B reviewed: Half day on the Pottery wheel

"Really fun experience and a new skill to boot!!! My dog will love her new food bowl and I'll be able to drink my morning coffee from my very own handmade mug. I would recommend for a group of friends or family, but equally good fun for an individual as the pottery is a small friendly environment."

Ian N. reviewed: Half day on the Pottery wheel

"Rachel's enthusiasm for potting shines through. The whole process was comprehensively explained and additional questions all answered. The half day was over in a flash!"

RACHEL BYASS CERAMICS responded:

"Thank you so much for this review. I am so glad you enjoyed your time at the pottery and got a lot from the time. Thank you Rachel "

Mary Kiely reviewed: Half day on the Pottery wheel

"Thoroughly enjoyed my half day pottery wheel class with Rachel, who was both very skilful at demonstrating and helpful when things went awry, as they did for all of us at some point! I was surprised just how physical it all was, particularly in the early stages of 'middling' the clay. It was very pleasing to work with something organic and produce two handsome and useful (I hope!) pieces. There was time to munch a banana at half time, and thank you so much for the Himalayan poppy seedheads! I would love to return for another session."

"thank you for coming do dry out the poppys and throw on the garden in spring x"

Jane reviewed: Half day on the Pottery wheel

"Overall the half day throwing course was brilliant. Thoroughly enjoyed it. My only, hopefully constructive criticism is that, given the cost for 4 hours (a) it would have been nice to be offered refreshments at the beginning while the course leader was talking about different clays and glazes and firing temperatures, but nothing was offered until half way through the half day, and (b) there was a lot of information to take in....an information sheet/handout would have been very useful. Having said all that, the actual teaching in how to throw a pot was excellent."

"Lovely course. Brilliant teacher who is very knowledgeable and quick to offer tips and help as needed. Given a lot if choice on what you wanted to do and how you wanted to do it. Excellent lunch provided and tea and coffee throughout the day. Thoroughly enjoyed the course and will be doing another one as it becomes available."

RACHEL BYASS CERAMICS responded:

"Enjoy teaching you. I know all the ladies. It was a very pleasant day. I look forward to meeting you again"

Rachael reviewed: Pottery wheel experience 4 hours for beginners

"Thank you so much Rachel - I thoroughly enjoyed the pottery wheel experience and really appreciated your clear demonstrations, encouragement and patience, particularly with my rather wobbly second bowl! I'll be back!"

RACHEL BYASS CERAMICS responded:

"We did have such a laugh with the others putting on aprons wrong and not able to reverses the name for the bottom of the pots 😂"

Laura reviewed: Pottery wheel experience 4 hours for beginners

"Absolutely fantastic! Rachel is a great teacher, very knowledgeable and patient. With the class size only up to 5, Rachel has time to help everyone and ensure each person makes and paints 2 or 3 lovely pieces (such as a bowl, vase or pot). I thoroughly enjoyed this class and would go again."

RACHEL BYASS CERAMICS responded:

"glad you enjoyed your half day and look forward to seeing you again you where a natural "
