What does the Workshop include?
Leather is a material that offers us great possibilities in jewelry design. We find it in a huge variety of colors and textures, while we can intervene on its surface with various techniques, creating original textures and a unique result.
It can be cut into various shapes and designs and at the same time its plasticity even allows us to mold it, giving it volume and creating rounded surfaces.
In this seminar, using leather as the main material, we will learn to design and manufacture unique collections of artistic jewelry with our own design identity.
We will learn more in detail
skin types and their characteristics
other materials and tools for making leather jewelry
cutting, dyeing, finishing leather
surface treatment techniques (painting, engraving, folding, pyrography and many more)
cold skin compounds
the process of research and creative experimentation in jewelry design
design and manufacture of a small original series of jewelry based on students' designs
