About

The Northern Pottery is my clay-covered corner of Hornsby, built around creativity, community and the simple joy of making. With over 20 years of experience working with clay, I’ve created a space where people of all skill levels can slow down, get their hands dirty and enjoy the rhythm of the process.

From wheel throwing to handbuilding and everything in between, our classes are relaxed, welcoming and always just the right amount of muddy. There’s plenty of tea, good chats and no pressure to be perfect — just come along and make something!

We did a kurinuki pottery class with Daniel as a family of five and had such a wonderful time. The atmosphere was really cool and calm, which made it easy to relax and enjoy the process. Daniel was so knowledgeable and patient, guiding us through our very first go at working with clay. It was a really lovely experience for all of us, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking to try something creative and memorable.

I recently attended Kurinuki workshop here with my daughter and it was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and full of creative energy. Daniel is incredibly knowledgeable and patient, guiding us step-by-step while still giving plenty of room for our own ideas to shine. The studio itself is beautiful, well-organised, and stocked with everything you could possibly need. Even as a complete beginner, I felt comfortable and confident. What I loved most was the mix of learning new skills and feeling truly relaxed. It was the perfect combination of hands-on creativity and mindful, calming fun. I can’t wait to come back!

Thank you so much Oxana!

We're thrilled to hear that you and your daughter had such a time at our Kurinuki workshop. It was wonderful having both of you in the studio, and we're glad you found the atmosphere warm and welcoming. We take pride in providing a space filled with creative energy where beginners can feel comfortable and confident while exploring pottery.

It's great to hear that you enjoyed the mix of learning new skills and finding relaxation in the process. We believe that pottery should be both fun and therapeutic, and we're glad that you felt that way too. We look forward to welcoming you back for more creative and calming pottery sessions in the future!

Cheers! Daniel
