A pottery experience using lava glaze that is probably not found anywhere else in the world. Starting with Lucie Lee in the past, Adam Silverman of NY is famous for lava glaze in modern times. Please search for it. This is the expression of the glaze surface of works that are traded for tens of thousands to 300,000 yen. At MONO FACTORY, I have created a glaze that effervescent glaze that I have sublimated to my own taste after 17 years of failure. The effervescence is large and you can create unique flower pots, objects, and other works. If you are a fan of succulents such as agaves, why not try making one yourself on your way back from Shaboten Park? *Other than the effervescent glaze, it is the same as a regular pottery experience. Please feel free to join us☆*I am currently exploring the possibility of presenting works using this type of expression to the world. This is a limited-time plan. We operate with the idea that we want you to spend a fulfilling ``Quality Time''. We value each and every person's time. You can play in the soil calmly in a relaxed atmosphere. We will support you behind the scenes to make memories of your trip☆・You can fail as many times as you want on the electric potter's wheel! You can use as much clay as you want♪♪ The basic fee includes the firing fee for one piece of work within the size of half an A4 sheet of paper (A5), and you will create one piece of work with a lava glaze (bumpy) finish without any additional options. Normally, the glaze option costs 11,000 yen/piece.・Hand-made work requires 1 kg of clay. You can add 100g/160 yen. ・Additional firing is also OK! If you would like to fire two or more pieces, please let us know at the end. ・We moved from Chigasaki, Shonan. We aim to create a comfortable space. ・The owner is a perennial beginner surfer who loves hot springs, fishing, and traveling. Please feel free to come☆~Experience flow~①Please come at the reception reservation time. ②Confirm the plan contentsConfirm the experience contents and price. Put on an apron (free rental) and start the experience! ③Start of the experienceStaff will carefully support even first-timers. If you have any requests or an image of the work you want to make, please let us know. ④ An announcement will be made 10 minutes before the end of the session. After the customer has completed the shaping, the process will be semi-drying, carving (if necessary), final drying, bisque firing, special processing to make lava glaze, final firing, and completion. ⑤ The finished product will be delivered in about 1 to 2 months.
You can make pottery using the original lava glaze created at MONO FACTORY, a renewed version with larger foam, through a pottery experience. In the normal 100 minute course, we changed the 2 points to 1 point to reduce the cost of the lava glaze option. If you want one piece of this finished product, you can go with this course without thinking about the difficult things as it is all included☆

Other notifications | *The size of lava glaze foam cannot be completely controlled. Please note that even if you use the photographic image as a reference, this may not be the case. Sometimes the foaming becomes too large and the high base (lower part) may become welded. In that case, some of it may be scraped. Please be aware of this in advance. |
Plan attractions
This is Lava Glaze Is this the only place in the world where you can experience lava glaze? Since it foams the bumpy surface, it might even bring out the flavor even in distorted pieces! ? Expressions and works that can only be created here at MONO FACTORY
Lava glaze processing (MONO FACTORY) The experience itself is no different from other plans except for the bumpy finish, and you can enjoy it either on an electric potter's wheel or by hand. Please select when making your reservation.
Processing after molding (MONO FACTORY) Each piece created by a customer is carefully processed and glazed to give it a lava-like appearance. It's probably more time consuming than you imagine.
Atelier courtyard The front of the STUDIO is fully open from spring to fall! ! Making a plant pot while feeling nature is sure to be comfortable ☆
