What is Chinese lacquer (Da Qi)?
Chinese lacquer, known as Da Qi, is a natural resin extracted from the lacquer tree. It forms a durable surface with a soft, glowing finish and is used for repairing ceramics or creating handcrafted trays, jewelry, and decorative pieces.

For the short experience class, practice ceramics are provided, so bringing your own is not necessary. If you wish to repair your personal ceramic piece, please inform us in advance.

Do I need prior painting or crafting skills?
No experience is required. The course guides you step by step, making it suitable for beginners.
