What's a Gluggle Jug?

Imagine a fish-shaped jug that makes a delightful "gluggling" sound as you pour! Inspired by the local fishing culture and the tranquil shores of Silvermine Bay, our gluggle jug workshop invites you to hand-build a piece of art that’s full of character.

Master the Art of Coiling:

In these classes, you'll learn the satisfying pottery coiling technique. This method involves rolling clay into long, rope-like coils and carefully stacking them to create your jug. It’s a meditative and rewarding process that allows you to feel the clay in your hands and build a truly organic, one-of-a-kind form. Perfect for both beginners and those with some pottery experience!






After-School Pottery Fun for Kids (Ages 6-16):

Provide your child with a creative escape from screens through our captivating after-school pottery classes in Mui Wo. They will master the basics of the coiling technique while enjoying the process of crafting their own gluggle jug. It’s a fantastic opportunity to:

  • Develop fine motor skills and patience
