The Art of Florentine Majolica
Traditional Ceramic Painting
Shape a piece of Florentine tradition
Discover the refined beauty of Florentine ceramic art through an exclusive exploration of traditional majolica. A visit to select local ceramic workshops offers insight into centuries-old craftsmanship. You will delve into the distinctive details, techniques and decorative motifs of Florentine majolica before taking part in a hands-on ceramic workshop led by a master ceramist (optional).
Participants will select a theme, sketch guiding lines and develop a harmonious colour composition for their own ceramic piece. The artwork will then be left to dry and fired in a kiln. Upon completion, the finished piece may be shipped to guests as a lasting memento of this artisanal experience.
