Wild Pottery - Level 1.5

On Level 1.5 Wild Pottery you’ll be creating pots that come out black from the firing, building on knowledge already gained through the Level 1 course.

Prerequisite*: Wild Pottery Level 1. If you’ve not already attended the Level 1 course, you can book a place on a course earlier in the year.

As on Level 1 Wild Pottery, this will be an immersive 2-day course: digging our clay from the woodland site and prepping it to make it strong enough to survive the firing. But there’ll be more time for you to develop your handbuilding skills and explore more complex forms than on Level 1. We’ll be using the same type of tools, equipment and technology as those used, so far as we know, since Neolithic times, when pottery began, and well into the Iron Age.

The firing we’ll do is similar to the open firing taught on Level 1, but with an additional stage which produces black pots through a process known as soot-soaking.
