Neriage TechniquesNeriage is a decorative technique in pottery where patterned clay made from mixing and layering different colored or shaded clays is used to form pottery through shaping and firing. The term neriage is derived from the Japanese words "ne-ru" meaning "to knead" and "a-geru" meaning "to raise up" and is pronounced as "Ne-Ri-Ah-Gey". (sounds similar to the Japanese food karaage.)
Neriage is typically used for forming pottery on a potter's wheel. You will be amazed at the stunning wheel thrown pieces achieved with these beautiful techniques. Create swirls and patterns to enhance your 3 pieces you will throw as well as one Nerikomi hand made bowl.
Neriage is a labor-intensive process that requires patience and effort. To achieve the desired colors and patterns, the clay must be carefully mixed, and the surface must be sanded with sandpaper to reveal the pattern clearly, resulting in a highly detailed and intricate piece.
This workshop will take your wheel throwing to another level to inspire you on your journey into ceramics.
Beginners on the Pottery Wheel Workshop an advantage but not essential
