„Jewelry should be a little bit romance, a little bit whimsical, and a little bit magic." (Unbekannt)
At the Drawing Academy, training in goldsmithing is your entry into the world of craftsmanship, art, high-quality jewelry and small objects. Precious metals, gemstones and many other materials are indispensable components of the design.
The craft
Goldsmithing is a fascinating and versatile craft in which passion for beauty and design is transformed into unique pieces of jewelry. It requires a high level of precision, creativity and manual skill. Good fine motor skills and stamina are essential. With us, you will learn the basics in modern workshops.
The design
Experienced designers will accompany you on your journey to designing your own jewelry, necklaces, rings, bracelets, brooches and much more: from your first idea, through the drawing and model to the finished piece, you will design your own piece of jewelry. Attention to detail and precise work, as well as a good eye for design, colors and shapes are skills that are honed in the drawing academy in order to put creative ideas into practice.
And you?
