make a dagger – Not Core

create a clay dagger workshop

Spend your sunday morning in the studio, pinching clay and creating your very own ceramic dagger keepsake.

In this workshop, you will get to choose from three different clays: white, sandy grogged, or black, while learning about the unique qualities of each clay to inform your decision.

After you have chosen your clay, you will be able to begin pinching and carving your dagger. You will have the freedom to take your time and create. You could make two small daggers that can be used as keychain accessories, or you can make one larger decorative piece. The creativity is all yours, and I will be there to assist you in executing your ideas.

Once you have finished working with clay, you will get to choose from over 20 different ceramic glazes, selecting up to three different glazes and discussing different layering options and effects. Once your dagger has been through its first firing, I will apply your chosen glaze(s) to your piece for you, before it then gets fired once more and is ready for you to pick up.These daggers are not sharp; they are purely decorative and make for a beautiful and unique gift or personal keepsake.

Sunday 7th December workshop will have pieces ready to pickup by 19th of December, otherwise the pieces will be to shipped to you via standard or express shipping on the 20th of December. (Standard shipping and Express shipping will be available for an extra cost, delivery options will be discussed after the workshop.)
