Intro
Granulation is the oldest decorative metalwork technique known to mankind. Tiny grains or spheres of precious metal appear to be held by magic to the metal’s surface without using solid attachments or even solder. The Etruscans are the acknowledged masters of the granulation process and to this day their exquisite work can still be admired in many museums around the world.
Discover the ancient art of granulation, a stunning decorative technique perfected by the Etruscans. Learn to fuse tiny metal granules into intricate designs that catch the light, especially in 22ct gold.
Artist-jeweller Linda Lewin will guide you through practical skill-building and sample creation, offering both group tuition and 1:1 guidance. An optional British Museum visit will provide inspiration from historical granulation masterpieces.

When:3 – 5 March 2025. 9.30am – 4.30pm
Cost: £579 (8 places)
