About This Tour

This private Nanjing craft workshop is designed for travelers who want to make something by hand and understand the local cultural background behind it. Your English-speaking guide picks you up downtown, introduces the craft tradition, and translates between you and the artisan. Materials are prepared in advance. The artisan demonstrates the technique, then you complete a beginner-friendly piece with step-by-step guidance. If the finished item needs drying, firing, framing, or later collection, the guide explains the handling and delivery options before the tour ends.
