Intro
Freiburg and Mähring became perfect new locations for our jewelry summer courses. In both places there are well-equipped studios with up to 10 spaces, a  attractive cultural environment, and a rich range of dining and accommodation options. The Black Forest in Freiburg and the charming Stiftland in the Northern Part of Bavaria around Mähring are first-class excursion destinations.
The 5 day summer courses begin with Silversmithing in Mähring from July 13th to 18th Bea Benedetti's Paper Jewellery is represented at many exhibitions in Switzerland. In her workshop from July 20th to 25th in Freiburg it will become clear, how versatile this material can be used for jewellery.
There is still great interest in the topic of Enameling Techniques. This course, led by Mandy Rasch, is scheduled for the week of July 27th to August 1nd.
The advantages of Argentium Silver Alloy over traditional silver alloys are obvious. With Christine Zock, the participants explore the many possibilities that this alloy  and the additional Keum Boo from August 3rd - 8th. We are pleased that there will be a workshop on Chasing Repousse with Georg Schulte from September 14th - 19th  followed by a class on Folding and Hollow Shape techniques from September 21th - 26th  .


Classes in Freiburg
The Studio in Freiburg with 10 places is located near the City centre in the beautiful district of Wiehre and well equipped for all the workshops.  A perfect place to develop ideas and learn new techniques. The history of the city of Freiburg is closely linked to silver mining. In the Middle Ages, there were also many gem-cutting places. A complete historic grinding workshop has been preserved in nearby Waldkirch, which can be visited by appointment. Freiburg is described as one of the most popular Towns worldwide in the Lonely Planet travel guide. Accommodation should therefore be booked early.

Jewellery can be more than an accessory.
It can be a small but rich small piece of sculpture, closely connected to the body and the bearer of the communication as a sign. The possibilities of expression through form, colour, and choice of material are diverse. Jewellery has moved away from many traditional disadvantages. Gold, silver, and precious stones are no longer the only materials for jewellery.
