Electric Pottery Wheel Experience

【Feel the pulse of the earth at your fingertips】 A luxury of creating 'form' from 'nothing' with an electric potter's wheel

In the tranquility of Tenei Village, the most exhilarating moment awaits. It may be when you sit before the spinning 'electric potter's wheel' and gently place your hands on the moist clay. Once the switch is turned on, the lump of clay before you begins to spin like a living creature. What exists there is a world of only your fingertips and the rotating clay. The electric potter's wheel experience is an exquisite intellectual entertainment that relies on the delicate sensations of your fingertips to bring your ideals to life.

■ The 'immersive pleasure' that changes the world with just a fingertip

Unlike hand molding, the electric potter's wheel, which utilizes centrifugal force, offers a unique sense of speed and the fun of transformation.

• Intimate connection that sticks: The sensation of smooth clay, enhanced by water, is surprisingly sensual. When you center it and gently poke a hole with your thumb, the thickness spreads evenly, and the shape of the vessel rises like magic.
• The thrill of manipulating change: With just a slight increase in pressure from your fingers, the vessel stretches high or puffs up. The beautiful curves that are born in the moment your breath synchronizes with the rotation are truly an art form unique to the electric potter's wheel.

■ 'Professional territory' that even beginners can enjoy

You might have the impression that it's 'difficult,' but the wheel that spins at a constant speed actually has the advantage of making it easier for beginners to create beautiful vessels with uniform thickness.

• With the guidance of a craftsman: With the support of a craftsman, you learn to manage the clay's reaction and shape it. Without fearing failure, as you wrestle with the clay, you will eventually find your distractions fade away, leading you into a deep state of immersion (zone) where you focus solely on the vessel before you.

■ And then, the soul goes to the flames of Tensho Kiln

Thus, the vessel that embodies your very 'breath' is finally fired by the flames of Tensho Kiln.

• From shape to artwork: The unique shape that you have crafted, one of a kind in the world. When it is fired in the kiln protected by a master craftsman, it transcends being merely a 'vessel' and is transformed into a 'treasure of a lifetime' that holds the memories of your journey.

The vibrations felt from your fingertips, the smell of the clay, and the surprise of changing shapes. Why not awaken the creativity sleeping within you using the magical device of the electric potter's wheel?
