Make your own beautiful Sgraffito ceramic plate with Lauren at Globe 2!
WHAT: In this relaxing and creative ceramics workshop with Lauren our hand building tutor, you’ll decorate a pre-made clay plate using the beautiful sgraffito technique. You’ll carve through a coloured surface layer to reveal the clay underneath, creating striking, high-contrast designs. All plates will be glazed and fired after the session, ready to collect in 3–4 weeks.
Slip Colour Choice; Each plate will be made from white clay and coated in a coloured slip prior to the workshop. You may choose from the following slip colours:
· Black
· Mid Blue
· Green
Please let us know your colour choice 3 days before the workshop to allow our technician time to prepare your plate. Email admin@globearts.org.uk with your preference, If we do not receive a preference, black slip will be provided by default.
