Overview
Immerse yourself in the world of goldsmithing – a special experience in the countryside
Whether with friends or with your partner – an unforgettable workshop awaits you in my workshop in Tuscany: Together you will discover the fascinating world of goldsmithing, a heart of Florentine tradition.
From melting the precious metal to rolling, drawing, hammering and sawing to filing, soldering, grinding and polishing.
In just a few hours you will forge your own ring – a real one-off that will bring a lot of joy to yourself or a loved one.
If you want, you can also bring old silver or gold. Together we melt it down and create something new.
Previous knowledge? You don't have to. Just joy in design and desire for a special experience. Anyone can do it – and everyone goes home with a bright smile and a self-forged ring.
In between, it gins a regional snack.

Forge your own ring – an unforgettable experience
My studio is air-conditioned.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, in the midst of a quiet, air-conditioned workshop, a very special adventure awaits you : in just four hours, you will forge your own ring from real silver – a unique piece of jewellery that you will take home as a lasting memory.
You will be accompanied step by step without any previous knowledge : you will learn how to melt and solder silver, and you will be allowed to lay hands on yourself – rolling plates, pulling wire, sawing, filing, hammering, sanding and polishing. You end up holding a piece of jewelry that's really yours.
Especially beautiful : If you want, you can bring old jewelry and give it new life – for example, a piece of parents or grandparents, even gold, which lives on as a wedding ring and thus takes on a special emotional meaning.
For a refreshment, there is a fine snack with regional delicacies in between – a small pleasure break in the middle of creative work.
All you have to bring is the desire to create something with your own hands. Anyone can do it – and you will be proud of your work!
