It was a splendid experience. Marzia, the hostess, was kind and made me feel comfortable right away, even though it was my first experience with clay. She is knowledgeable and conveys all the love she has for her work. The environment is welcoming, set in a beautiful setting. I will definitely return, perhaps this time accompanied by some friends for a shared experience. I highly recommend it!
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. I recommend using the what3words app to find the workshop: ///benched.weekend.catch
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!
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.
Thank you so much Bob :) It was a pleasure having you at the Lab
