It's was so much fun, we went there to have our first experience with clay and it was great, the staff is super friendly and they offer us refreshing towel during our course. They will deliver our creation the next day. Just try it if you have time.

The Good - We had a great time here making our clay masterpieces. Even though it was hot and you manually turn the potters wheel with your feet, there was plenty of help and we were very proud of our artwork and how professional they looked. We also bought a number of pieces in the shop. The Bad- The next... More

If you've never sat at a clay turn table before or had your hands filled with clay and if you've always wanted to... this gives you an awesome opportunity! I've watched people do this on TV and it looks like good fun, so, I tried it myself. The girls were friendly and patient and did their best to teach me.... More

Khmer Ceramics Centre is a very nice place to visit, to shop and clay classes. They have just the nicest work in Sean Reap and by far. High quality and can be shipped world wide. They offer vocational training for young disadvantaged Cambodians, academic research and international collaborations with esteemed potters to build and revive this lost heritage. You also... More

I booked a potter wheel class to try my hand at making ceramics on a potters wheel because I am always looking to try new things. They have free pick up and return drop off if you book before and tell them where you are staying. The lady I had teaching me on the wheel didn't speak much english which... More

Most Products are import from china, Vietnam or Thailand but here you will be sure to fine real Local Product. You can watch Cambodian Artisan at work outside a front of the place. The site is not so big is not really a factory, but a niece project trying to bring back the heritage of ancestral ceramics.

We went here for a visit on our first day in Siem Reap as we were a little free and didn't have anything scheduled for the day. It is a great activity to do in an afternoon. My husband wasn't sure he would enjoy it, as he is not into the arts stuff (for that matter, neither am i) but... More

We went there for deeper understanding of the Khmer ceramic arts. The guided tour is free as it’s stated however it was only 3 sentences about different types of clays and temperature inside the furnace. Unfortunately the ’guide’ was not able to answer any of our questions just directed us to the shop on site. We weren’t impressed by the... More
