Learn Traditional Cappadocia Pottery in Goreme, Nevsehir - Hands-On Workshop for You

Summary: Fun workshop! Shaping the clay then decorating the pieces took about an hour. We took them home even though they weren’t completely dry yet. They survived the trip home wrapped in bubble wrap. We enjoyed the experience. The owner was gracious and explained a bit about the history and how artisans make the pieces. Her son was the one helping us with the pottery. The store sells beautiful hand crafted plates, bowls, vases and tiles which are stunning pieces of art.

Summary: It was an amazing experience. We had the opportunity to make our own clay pots and design them by hand with toothpicks which we could take back with us home. The hosts taught us the basics and explained the history & culture of pottery here in Cappadocia. We also bought some souvenirs as they were really pretty. Highly recommend!

Summary: Amazing experience! Not only did we get to create our own pottery, but we were also able to personalize it by carving our own designs. In the end, we took it home with us, making it the perfect souvenir from our trip!

Summary: I had such a lovely visit to the ottoman art ceramic workshop on 10/05 the host were honestly so lovely and welcoming, this was my first day in cappadocia on my solo trip and my first activity and it really set the tone for my trip! Such great value for money! I was given the choice of various pieces to make and I settled on a vase, I was informed on the history of the clay and pottery in cappadocia and shown how to spin my vase on the pottery wheel, I loved my final product and was also give the option to restart if I wanted to. I was able to draw patterns on my clay and was later given a tour of the different pottery and informed on the culture behind certain pieces. I returned 2 days later as I was in the area on a tour but I wanted to stop by to buy some pieces as a token, they remembered me instantly and embraced me! I was so warmly welcomed and gifted with tokens of joy and happiness from the family for my return! I would strongly recommend coming here!

Summary: This was our first time trying pottery and we came out appreciating the art so much more! Mustafa, our workshop teacher, guided us throughout the process and without him we would not have a final product. Ibrahim, who was our translator and facilitator helped us understand how crucial pottery has been for the people of Cappadocia and informed us about the Phosphorous available in the red clay available in Cappadocia that makes the pottery glow in the dark. Overall, we had a great session with awesome conversation. If you are planning to buy pottery from Cappadocia, they also offer a deep discount for people who go through the workshop. We would definitely recommend, especially if you haven't done it before and want to try something new.
