Discover Banyumulek’s pottery workshops
Banyumulek, Kediri, West Lombok, Indonesia
Banyumulek rewards travellers who like to see how things are made. The village’s potters shape earthenware using inherited techniques, with local clay and traditional finishes giving the work its character. Visit a workshop to watch the process, or arrange a lesson for a more hands-on introduction. It is a thoughtful place to buy a souvenir directly from its maker, with time to ask about the design and how to transport a finished piece home.
