[13/10/2021] Updated Chinese Translation by AJia + Added 10 recolors of the Pottery Station
[17/09/2021] I added an extra optional file if you want your Sim to like/dislike Pottery
It’s completely optional, you don’t need it to use the Pottery Wheel, but I thought some people might enjoy it. In CAS it can be found under Hobbies & Skills category.

Interactions with craftables
80% of the potteries give off an emotional aura
View the object
The Sim will admire the handcraft and get special moodlets
Sell to Pottery Museum
This interaction will allow your Sim to sell their products at a double price (available after skill level 5)
Sell to Private Collector
Similar to the upper, available after level 7
Some of the craftables are functional
On level 10 of the pottery skill, your Sim can create teapots and perfume bottles) they can be used, and the teapots work off-the-grid.
With level 6 onward, your Sim will create different types of big vases, amphoras, kylix, etc. They all can be used to collect water.
Buffs
There are at least 20 different buffs, that your Sim can receive from different interactions, including, after finishing crafting, viewing the craftables, and mentoring.
What Is The Price Structure
The cost to make the ceramic is based on a small fee – to cover hidden costs. (It’s around 0.5 % of the retail price)
Selling Price
Adjusted so that the sim can profit in all cases, even when the quality is poor.
A higher price can be obtained by selling via the interaction ‘Sell to Pottery Museum’ and “Sell to Private Collector”.
Issues
The only known issue is that you cannot queue potteries. You have to craft potteries one by one.
