Hands at work

A piece does not appear by magic.

You try, adjust, sometimes it falls apart and you begin again. That is the good part.

  2. 02Drying and first firing
  3. 03Glazing and second firing
  4. 04Come back for your piece

At the end of your class, choose one color for us to glaze your piece. If you prefer to glaze it yourself, book another 3-hour session at the same price; you can also use it to create or continue other pieces.

Collect your piece in 15–20 business days after your class, or after your glazing session if you return to glaze it yourself. We will message you on WhatsApp when it is ready.

A studio with roots

Community before clientele.

Pepes is a place to learn the full craft and share a table. Maribel Ramírez Gándara guides each process with knowledge, warmth and zero unnecessary solemnity.

“Everyone can create. The rest is learned with your hands.”
