- I've been waiting a long time to slowly accumulate the footage for this video. It's another long one and it shows how I make a stoneware mug from beginning to end. I probably missed a lot in the video information wise so if there's anything else you'd like to know, please do leave it as a question in the comments and I'll do my best to reply.

I oddly find the narrated version more relaxing to listen to than the ASMR version. Lovely job on the narration.
Same!!! I think it his voice!!!!
Same! 😊
As a college student, i can say your videos are definitely going to be watched by some pottery making class, and you'll be that college professors favorite channel to reference. I can already see it
you were surely right! i’ve found myself in a beginners ceramics class and we all LOVE florian!
Here are Michigan state our professors link these videos on our class website!
you’re making me want to buy a new, quiet wheel. so satisfying to watch a nice, solid wheel head that doesn’t buzz all day!
Haha, yeah, I've thrown on wheels that sound like helicopters and all kinds over the years. Nowadays they've got to be quiet for the filming but really, that buzz does get to you after 5--6 hours. Thanks for watching as always!
I've just taken my first pottery class and seeing the whole process, with your narration, has been so helpful. Thanks for your generosity in sharing your knowledge.
That's wonderful to hear. I hope you liked your first class, it's an addictive process. Thanks for watching and good luck potting!
I wasn't looking for people just making the mugs. I wanted someone to explain the process while doing it, with all the nuances and little details, tips etc. And I got EXACTLY what I was looking for. Not to make 'em myself, but to just know the process.
Great video!
Sir im A pottery man too from Iraq. I like your work so much
I love watching your videos so much! They’ve inspired me to find somewhere to learn when it’s safe again
What a generous sharing of your tremendous skill and creativity! Thank you! Now I have to find some means of purchasing some of your work!
You always make pulling handles seem like a breeze! It's so great to watch you content as you share your process! Keep up the great work!
Your videos are really enjoyable to watch. Relaxing, informative, interesting, and easy to consume. Thank you for all of the extra effort you put into your pottery to share your process with us.
You are so kind , so detailed and so profesional ! Thank you so much for your ongoing contribution to us, less experienced pottery lovers 🧿
I’ve been a big fan of yours for some
Time. Just recently found your CZcams and wow, I can see why you pottery is so beautiful and precise. Keep up the amazing work and I love watching these!
This video is wonderful to watch! I love seeing so much work done and at different stages. I like your detailed explanation of how the kilns work.
26 minutes feel like 10 when watching your videos
Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it.
watching this process from start to finish was incredibly helpful as compared watching multiple videos that only show one step at a time.
Florian, your videos have amazing quality. So plesant to watch. All the information you include makes it much more easy to understand what are you doing for someone who knows verry little about the subject.
I love that you showed the whole process. People that don't do ceramics have no idea how many little steps go into each piece, and it's very satisfying to see each step in one video. I love your work, I'm hoping to snag a piece in your next release!
I really enjoyed your style of tutorial. As someone with AuDHD I have a hard time with people who pause and reiterate constantly. I just want to watch, start to finish. I can’t learn if you keep stopping!! So thank you!
I absolutely loved this video! It's funny how you make it all seem so simple, and yet we know how complicated it truly is! We know also the great skill it requires to have all of your throwing skills, glazing knowledge, finishing techniques, proper loading, all come together in a successful firing, producing your unique and beautiful work. Your glazes are stunning, and the forms have such clean and simple lines.Very inspiring! Thank you for taking the time to make this video; it was a positive joy!
whole life before playing tennis I watched some videos of pros, just to mentally instill the right strokes, movements...then when you go to play it’s already in there 🧠 Now, before I’m going to handle, I watch you pull handles. It’s such a lovely gentle prep 🙏👍❤️
Your videos are so incredible. I've watched through your beginners series twice now. I recently took a few private pottery classes at a local studio but at the final stage (glazing), they somehow lost my pieces. I was devastated! Watching your videos has made me feel excited to try again. I love how thorough you are and how much time you put into making these educational videos. Thank you!!!
Stunning and very interesting to to take us through the entire process. It's the hard work and dedication that goes into making these beautiful mugs!
Thank you for sharing!
You've definitely mastered a beautiful glaze! Love your simplistic, modern design. Thanks for the video
It's delightful to watch a real expert at work. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.
I'm hoping to create a pottery studio with my wife in the future.
You really help me gain enough confidence to go for it!
The tapping of the blank to create the flare is a great tip!
Thank you so much for this, I've been trying to make a mug for my mother, and I was having a hard time using the wheel, but after mimicking what you did, I have made a great mug for my mother. I can't thank you enough!
Hi Florian. Thank you for your brilliant videos, very instructive, educational, well detailed . They show your brilliant skills, your passion and workmanship.
I have learnt a lot. Very grateful for your time. You create very beautiful pieces.
I’ve watched you do this so many times and it never gets old
I have watched it several times myself and enjoy it each time as well.
So so wonderful! You have a great calming voice that makes this so easy to watch. I loved seeing the full process and learning about all the small details and instructions that make this process safe and efficient. Thanks so much for taking the time to share this!
your videos always help me to relax, I only have to not be in too comfy of a position or I'll fall asleep to your gentle voice!
It has kind of become a ritual of mine to watch one of your videos before going to bed... Hehehe it's SO soothing to watch 🤩🤩 you are a master and your work is absolutely stunning 🙏🏼😊😊😊
Another great video. I love the camera angles, and the narration of each step and why!
This is so beautifully specific. The detailed tips like using the glaze lid to prevent spillage and using your fingertips to desharpen the edges after shaping make me emotional with their elegance.
Not a potter at all but I'm planning to make a mug for my partner's birthday at a local pottery class and this will help immensely with making it a gift that's at least likeable if not actually practical.
Such a great video Florian. Thank you so much for all your effort of making and sharing it. Cheers Mx
I have been thinking of taking up pottery and a main interest right now in making mugs. Thank you for this channel and video.
Love the mug forns, have been trying more regular cylinders lately and they're surprisingly satisfying figures. Not as boring as I thought they'd be
Thank you! I always lean towards simple forms, cylinders, straightforward curves, and so on. I'm still surprised I find them a joy to make, even after throwing several thousand over the past ten years.
Beginning to end this was amazing and so calming
Love your work so much. It is a beautiful thing to watch someone so dedicated to his art. Thank you for your videos. I'm learning so much :)
Thanks very much Alexandra! I appreciate the kind words and thanks for taking your time to watch. Hearing that you're learning from them makes all the time spent putting them together so very worth it.
A wonderful potter and a great teacher, thank you so much F!
Thank you so much for your generous sharing of what you have learned. Truly appreciated. Blessings 🙏🏽
I just took my first lesson, and enjoyed pottery more than I thought I would. I love your mugs how the handle looks like it is literally pulled out of the mug, beautiful. Great video, I couldn't stop watching.
I watched twice. It's such a calm cool video and great. I to just started class and I'm having so much fun making my wonky little projects. 😂 good luck on your adventure! 😊
@@themoodyonejb You too :)
What an incredible video🌸 I learned so much, and I can’t wait to try those handles .
So beautiful. I love these videos. Would love to see what you do with the pots that you don't deem worthy/get smashed. Like how you tell which ones aren't perfect and what you do with them afterwards
Perfect demonstration and valuable explanation. The best video ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you for this video. The process of the making although simple, is quite elaborated. It's well explained and very entertainig. I quite enjoyed this video, it's very relaxing. Thanks again!
thank you so much for your lovely work and beautifully explained tutorial. such a kind heart.
The mirror tip has been so helpful!
Dude!!! what an awesome video! one of the best I have seen on ceramics. thanks...
Thank you for sharing your work and knowledge with us!
Fantastic work. This was really educational and enjoyable to watch. Thankyou.
I'm really enjoying your videos. I'm a beginner and feel like I'm learning with your videos.
I've been wanting to make some like some mugs and bowls and I didn't know how to until I watch this video now I'm realizing that it's going to take a lot of money
This was amazing. I had no idea this much was involved.
I’m so happy you follow your passion
First time watching your videos, and yes I'm in love with your work! they look warm and gives me a chill vibe at the same time. I'm subscribing for sure, looking forward to your next videos.
Thank you so much. I am very new in training and feel this was a very good presentation.
great video , so much detail and work involved... the explanations and guidance throughout is fantastic , Ive gained a new found respect for the art..:-)
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for making this video. Best education every!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, experience and skills. I love your work ❤
It's my pleasure! Thanks for taking the time to watch 🙌🏼
im going to show your videos to my ceramics professor! so helpful!
I love your videos man thank you for making and sharing them with us. Beautiful work. That reduction is amazing
Thanks for taking the time to watch Michael!
With the freedom of hand-crafting from clay, it's fascinating how different people think a mug should look.
pottery is one thing that ive always loved to watch but have never tried myself.
Beautiful work, wonderful video, thank you
This is insanely satisfying to watch and learn.. thank you for sharing this with us!
liked and subscribed. I watched it beginning to end totally fixated on what I was watching. Great content.
This is awesome!
Ah, once again, once again... pretty darn perfect.
You are such a good explainer.thanks so very much☕️🍩
That mugs are so nice and good looking too wow you are so talented
What an absolutely brilliant idea
Your potter's wheel make me feel so relaxed sir 😊
Plz post some videos on slab pottery
Thanks for sharing, so much great info.
so beautiful work!
Quite enjoyed watching the whole video. Something oddly satisfying and relaxing.
Just had a curiosity spark as my partner broke her favorite mug today and it was a limited edition piece, so sadly won't be able to replace.
Perhaps one day I'll give it a go :D
Keep up the good work!
great I can always watch your process.
Thank you for the detailed instructions. How did you decide on the glazes you use? Did you make them all from scratch? Or are they commercial formulas that you tried and then developed?
Wow! This was fantastic. Thank you
Love these videos, thank you for all the hard work
Thanks so much, hardworking yes, but well worth it I think. I just hope some people find the videos useful.
Very soothing😴 thank you for sharing
beautiful, just beautiful.
I really appreciate your videos!
Yooo... that was really cool to watch😍😍😍
The mirror is a cool idea. Also, I love the mugs, I only have 1 nice mug, a Denby Pottery one.
Thank you for the video. Good to hear the kiln firing backgrounds. Using eye protection when looking into a hot kiln should be good for you.
Thanks for watching! And tell me about it. I do wear goggles when the kiln begins to reach top temperature, although admittedly I do occasionally take a sneak peek within it them before that.
Amazing job ❤
I took a pottery class and my dad wanted me to make a mug for him. It’s probably gonna turn out bad but i just need to practice!
This was a beautiful watch, thank you. P.s. accidentally pressed dislike but was able to correct to a like! Wonderful work 🔥
Beautiful.
very inspiring!
Fascinating😍
Just wow. Thank you.
That was such a great video!! I wish I could've seen everything come out after the two mugs. Very nice, I hope to be this good soon with my clay venture.
Update... I paused for a few mo ths, but I'm back at it. Taking a class now, and having so much fun. Got my wheel, a bunch of tools I don't know how to use lol, and have made some pretty cool wonky looking bowls and my first mug! This is getting more fun by the week! Frustrating moments are learning moments indeed as well 😢 but I'm hanging in there 😊
Very relaxing video makes me want to try pottery and so satisfying at the end. What type of clay do you use? I'm not in UK and trying to find the clay close to what you use. But I don't even know what clay I'm looking for right now haha
Thanks for sharing God Bless
Therapeutic and inspiring
Thank you; fantastic!!
Hey! I find your videos truly informative and well narrated. I'm a ceramist that just got her first pottery wheel! I'm wondering: which kind of wax are you using? I always struggle in taking off the glaze from the bottom of my pieces
Thank you for another wonderful video! If you have time to answer, why do you soak at top temp? The reason I ask, I run a small clay studio and we have had trouble with bloating lately (since beginning to use darker bodied clays). I’ve read that it has everything to do with oxygen availability during bisque firing. So now I loosely pack the kiln and leave all the peep holes open but it seems so inefficient. I could give you more details but I just wonder if this soak is for that purpose or some other. Curious to know either way.
