Typische aardewerkervaring met lokale ambachtslieden in Catania

Very nice experience, wonderful care by the fantastic staff and overall impressive craftsmanship. Authentic handicraft and Sicilian tradition. I would recommend everyone to make this trip!

This was a highlight of our time in Sicily. We have 3 young kids (6, 4, and 1). The two older kids participated as well as my husband and me. We all had a lot of fun and learned a lot. All of the artists who helped us were exceptionally warm and kind with our children, which made the experience very special. We can’t wait to see all our finished pottery sent back to us at home to remind us of such a great day!

Very nice experience. Very friendly people. Nice atmosphere. Our daughter of 8 years thought this was a very nice change within the travel planning.

Very,very fun way to spend a half day. Learned how to use the pottery wheel, a press, and painted several tiles. All being shipped home. Super nice and friendly instructors.

We really enjoyed the pottery class. It was the first time for us and we definitely recommend it to anyone. You can get your pots delivered and that’s amazing!

Wow! We had such an amazing experience. This was very much a highlight of our trip to Catania and is a must for anyone who wants to try something new, something different or something that is just so memorable. The team at Ceramiche De Simone are not just experts and great teachers they also are lovely people to spend time with. They went above and beyond to make the 3 hour visit so incredible. Thank you!

This was just brilliant, it was like taking a expert class on a potters wheel and painting with the most kindest and friendly instructors and artists . we loved it , thank you so much for making us feel so welcome.

Oh my, where do I start, I have wanted to try Pottery for as long as I can remember, finally for my 30th Birthday my husband and I booked this experience. Believe me when I say that it is well worth every penny. It is such a personal experience, the teachers are very helpful and just lovely people. The day was filled with laughing and great vibes ! The workshop is just incredible, being able to watch the very talented artists create in the same space you learn. It is not just a class, you sit in the teachers chair where they create. Painting the tiles was a pleasant surprise, it is alot harder than I expected! My husband got the hang of it very quickly! They were very impressed ! I am so soo grateful for this experience and recommend it to anyone who visits Catania. If I ever visit Catania again I will come visit/book another class. Thank you, thank you for making my birthday special ♡

This is one of the best memories from Catania. I was with my husband and we met wonderful people there. The place is unique. A beautiful factory, full of wonderful handicrafts. We had the opportunity to work with Giovanni and Katia. Giovanni showed us how to work with clay on the wheel and it must be emphasized that he was very patient. Katia showed us how to paint on ceramics. Before going there, it is worth bearing in mind that you can get dirty, which was not a problem for us. We also received aprons, which in our case protected us completely 😊 If you have the soul of an artist in you, this place is a must on your list. Thank you very much. If there is a chance, we will definitely come back! 🥰

We loved learning about the process and taking part in it both by making our own clay vessels as well as painting! We get to keep all of the things we made and Giovanni was an amazing teacher and friend!
