Unique Vienna experience for people who wants to try pottery in the most relaxed and fun way. Einzigartige Wiener Erfahrung für Menschen, die das Modellieren mit Ton auf entspannte und unterhaltsame Weise ausprobieren möchten

Immerse yourself in a creative taste experience and let a glass of wine bring you closer to the true life of an artist. The creative among us know it: first comes the inspiration, the idea to create something with your own hands. Then comes the doubt. How will it work? Will it turn out the way I want it to? We are here for you at our two locations in Neubau and Hietzing to answer exactly these questions. Our team will provide you with ceramic expertise as well as wine from Austrian winegrowers.

In ancient Greece, people loved two things: Wine and ceramics. In this sense: In vino veritas – the truth is in the wine. And the truth is that your doubts are unfounded. So every Tuesday and Wednesday, treat yourself to a relaxing end to the workday with a glass of wine and some creative activity.

We look forward to seeing you there!

+ Behind the Scenes
After you’re done working on your piece, we make sure the conditions are right for your piece to dry properly – after a day or two, we turn it upside down and write your initials on it. Depending on the thickness of your creation, it will take 3-10 days to dry completely. Once it’s dry, we fire it at 960 degrees Celsius – reaching the right temperature and cooling takes about 28 hours. After the initial “raw” firing, we dip your piece in transparent glaze and place it in the kiln again – this time to fire at 1220 degrees Celsius. After another 36 hours, your piece is beautiful, shiny, very durable and fully functional. You can now use it every day, put it in the dishwasher and be proud of yourself 🙂
