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!
