An authentic encounter with a Genoese master goldsmith…
We offer creative, hands-on experiences for individuals or small groups. Each participant will have the opportunity to take home a unique piece of jewelry, handmade during the workshop.
These activities are ideal for couples, families, and team-building experiences.
“Precious Embroidery” – Metal Filigree Workshop
Immerse yourself in the fascinating art of metalworking. Under the guidance of an experienced artisan, you will learn the ancient technique of cutting and engraving on silver, copper, or brass.
Starting from a design that inspires you, you will create the base of a pendant, shaping and refining it step by step. At the end of the workshop, you will polish and complete your jewelry piece — a tangible and precious memory of your experience in Genoa.

“La Passeggiata” – Immersive Creative Walk
A unique hands-on learning experience that begins in the historic center of Genoa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Together we will explore the carruggi (the narrow medieval alleys), observing architectural details and patterns that will inspire the design of a jewelry piece. After the walk, we will return to the workshop to transform your inspiration into a personal creation — a jewel that tells the story of our shared journey through the city.

“Shaping the Material” – Wax Modeling Experience
You will have the opportunity to create a small object or a ring symbolizing your personal connection with Genoa, a city of contrasts and hidden beauty.
Experiment with shapes, engrave your personal message or imprint, and play with different textures using fabrics, leaves, or bark. Your wax model will then be cast and finished in silver within 10 days, ready to be worn.
