Workshops. Florence Jewellery Week

LAO, Le Arti Orafe Jewellery School in Florence, has organized an intensive 7-day event devoted to the jewellery world and the complex relationships between artistic research, crafts and design. The event also aims to focus on the cultural aspects of identity/diversity, which is one of the main topics of the debate in recent years.
