What's in the box?
Everything you need for a full pottery session: premium air-dry clay, a full set of pottery tools, paints, brushes, varnish and a step-by-step guide. Nothing extra to buy.
Do I need a kiln or an oven?
No. Sawa kits use premium air-dry clay that dries on its own in 24 to 48 hours. No kiln, no oven, no studio.
I've never done pottery. Will I manage?
Yes. The kit is designed for first-time potters. The step-by-step guide walks you through shaping, drying and painting, one stage at a time.
Which kit should I pick?
Pick by how many of you are making. The Solo Kit is for one, the Duo Kit is for two (best value), and the Group Kit covers 3 to 4 makers for friends and family sessions.
Is it suitable for kids?
Yes. Kids aged 8 and up can follow the guide mostly on their own. Younger children may need a little adult help with shaping and painting.
How long does the clay take to dry?
The clay dries by itself when left alone for 24-48 hours. The drying time will vary depending on how thick the piece is. The thicker your piece is, the longer it will take to dry.
Do not put your piece in the oven or apply heat to try to speed this process up as this will likely lead to cracks in your masterpiece.
What should I use as a work surface?
We recommend working on a non-porous surface that the clay will not get stuck to, that way you can wipe it down easily when you're finished.
How do I paint and varnish my pottery creations?
Once clay is entirely dry (ensure it is not damp to the touch) apply paint as desired. Allow time for paint to dry before applying varnish as the final step.
Can my piece hold water or food?
Finished pieces are decorative. Air-dry clay is not food safe and should not hold water, even when varnished. Think planters with a liner, trinket dishes, vases for dried stems and ornaments.
Can I get more clay?
Yes. We sell 250g refills of the same white air-dry clay in our add-ons, so you can keep making once the kit clay runs out.
How much do you charge for shipping?
Delivery is free across the UAE, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah.
How long will it take to arrive?
Order by 5pm and your kit arrives the next working day, anywhere in the UAE.

Yes. We also deliver to GCC countries. Rates and delivery times for your country are shown at checkout.
How can I pay?
You can pay by card or Apple Pay at checkout. Cash on delivery is also available.
Can I send a kit as a gift?
