This is Chinese calligraphy painted onto porcelain — two ancient art forms in 2 hours. Whether you've never held a brush or you grew up writing characters at your grandmother's table, you'll walk away with a deeper understanding of where Chinese writing came from, why it looks the way it does, and how to shape it yourself.

No prior knowledge needed and no prior skill required — just curiosity. We go beneath the surface: the origin of the characters, the philosophy behind every stroke, and the centuries-old blue pigment that turns your design into a piece you'll keep for years. One stop from King's Cross, easy to reach, hard to forget.
