Creating the drapery is an art.
It is an ancient technique that derives from the necessity to cover up themselves. It has evolved during time, continuously improving, becoming a real discipline to build a paper pattern.
It is seemingly easy to do it, but it actually hides a series of specific rules that are essential for the construction of a successful and perfect paper pattern.
We will design an article of clothing together and we will try to drape it. This will be a way to get to know the basic drapery knowledge.
If you really are curious though, I suggest you to become yourself the mannequin. You can thus observe through your drapery how the article takes shape on your body. This is so by choosing the movement and the lines.
This is a unique experience to understand how the fabric can change your shapes. It is all up to the way the draped fabric is used.
If you choose to do the mannequin, I suggest you to wear tight clothes, t-shirt and trousers that can be stapled.

TAILOR-MADE DRAWING
Rossella, tailoring
Have you ever wondered where does the inspiration to realize a dress come from?? In my case the inspiration are my clients. I interpret their dreams and their needs. I support them and suggest them which are the lines and the colors that could enhance their personality. Are you curious about getting to know how to go from the personality to the drawing? I invite you to try this experience during an explanatory talk and a first draft of the drawing thought just for you!

YOUR WOODEN INLAYED FLOWER
Renato, inlayer
During this 4-hour workshop I will show you the various wooden inlay techniques: fretwork, "buio", "toppo", the perspective inlay and the boulle technique. In particular, the fretwork technique will be studied in depth with demonstrations of the various processing phases, up to the final polishing. Afterwards, we'll try an easy workshop, where you'll learn the use of the fretworked arch, and I'll show you how to create three small inlays with floral motifs which will also be sandblasted. Three wooden flowers made by your hands, that you'll bring home as a perfect souvenir of this experience and that can be used as a bookmark.

BURIN ENGRAVING CLASS
Negar, goldsmith
The workshop starts for a minimum of 2 partecipants. During the experience in my showroom I will tell you about the burin engraving applied to goldsmith craft, we will have a brief conversation on this special technique from the traditional Florentine goldsmith culture to the contemporary usage. You will watch, touch and observe the jewels engraved following different techniques. Then we will move to my lab where I'll show you the manufacturing stages, the preparation of metallic sheet, the description of different types of burin and their usage, how to deal with some of my equipment. Of course I will also have a brief exhibition so that you will better understand the different kind of engraving. In the second part of the experience we will prepare the drawing that we are going to engrave, you will understand how to use the burin in order to sign the sketch. Now you can finally try it yourself, engrave the pattern and polish your artifact before having some final consideration. You will have the chance to take your creation away with you.
