What to expect
In this hands-on class, experiment with an ancient technique used in Mediterranean countries for centuries.
You will learn to carve your design into a cuttlefish shell and then pour molten metal into a unique mould as well as how to melt, cast, polish and finish your objects.
This workshop is perfect for beginners or those with some experience in metalwork.
All equipment, materials and light refreshments will be provided for the duration of the session.
