The moon jar is deeply rooted in Korean culture and ceramic lore, serving as both a ceremonial and a highly functional vessel throughout history. Over time, it has transcended its geographic origins and humble beginnings to become widely revered and continuously revisited by ceramicists around the world.
With as much support and guidance as you need, you’ll learn to form and refine your own moon jar. We will be using traditional hand-building techniques so as to render this complex form available even to those who have never worked with clay before.
Our retreat day together runs from 10AM until 4PM
We pause to eat at 1PM (please bring lunch)
Floral tea and light refreshments will be offered throughout the day
This retreat is for all-levels, including complete beginners
Space is highly limited to receive maximum guidance
All tools, materials and guidance will be provided and firing is included as well
You will leave having created a beautiful, milk–white, large-scale Moon Jar which will be yours to collect around 4–6 weeks later, after careful drying and firing
You can join a glazing workshop at a later date for this should you wish for a coloured finish however I prefer these orb-like and white
You can find our booking policy here
We so look forward to welcoming you in for this very special workshop
