Clay Salon Home Membership
Clay Salon Membership
Create at home, glaze together.
A ceramic membership for independent makers who love creating at home and coming together to glaze, exchange ideas and share their passion for clay.
Receive clay every month, develop your own ceramic projects and join our monthly Clay Salon gathering at the studio.
Your ceramic practice, at your own pace
Clay Salon brings together the freedom of working independently at home with the inspiration of a creative community.
Whether you're developing a personal project, experimenting with new forms or simply looking for a regular connection to ceramics, Clay Salon gives you the materials, support and space to continue your practice.
Once a month, we gather at Barsega Studio to glaze our creations, exchange experiences and explore the possibilities of natural ceramic materials.

Our mentors are there to offer guidance and introduce you to the possibilities of raw glazing, a traditional technique of applying glaze to unfired clay.

You can also purchase additional clay whenever you need more material for your projects.

Working with the materials of the Earth
At Barsega Studio, our glazes and ceramic painting materials are developed and prepared in-house, using forest stones, powdered minerals and natural pigments.
We see ceramics as a way to connect with the Earth, our roots and the traditions of working with natural materials.
Clay Salon is an invitation to explore this relationship through personal experimentation, shared knowledge and a community of ceramic makers.
