Granulation

3-day workshop with Paraskevi Kokolaki

December, 20-22 2017

Duration: 12 hours

The technique of granulation goes back in time and particularly from the 8th to the 2nd century BC when it was invented by Greeks and Etruscans. Small grains of pure silver are set with the technique of soldering to create decorative textures and patterns on flat, as well as on curved metal surfaces. Granulation is used in silversmithing for decorative purposes, while it is one of the techniques that are slowly fading.

Basic knowledge on silversmithing is a prerequisite.

Participants undertake the cost of materials.
Duration: December, 20-22 2017 (12 hours)
Schedule: Wednesday-Friday 17:00-21:00

Participation cost: 120 + VAT 24%
Instructor: Parakevi Kokolaki (designer-silversmith)
