What to expect from Varenna Holidays’ pottery class

During our two-hour private lesson in Abbadia Lariana, you’ll work under the guidance of a skilled artisan who will introduce you to the ancient art of the potter’s wheel. The experience begins with learning how to recycle and knead clay, followed by centering and shaping it into a stoneware product. By the end of the class, you’ll have crafted at least one cup, gaining new skills and a deeper appreciation for this craft.

Set in the quiet town of Abbadia Lariana, just a short train ride from Varenna and Lecco, the class is held in an inspiring location near the shores of Lake Como. The peaceful atmosphere complements the engaging activity, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the process while surrounded by the natural beauty of the Lake.

Taking time to create with your hands can be both relaxing and rewarding. This pottery turning class not only teaches you new skills but also provides an opportunity to rediscover a connection to the earth and to the traditions of craftsmanship that have been passed down for centuries. It’s a meaningful way to enjoy Lake Como beyond sightseeing, offering a unique souvenir: something you made yourself.
