Jewellery in Occhi technique with beads

Fri 02 – Sun 04 April 2027

Tatting, also known as Frivolité, is an ancient technique from the Orient, which was already used in the Middle Ages for fine lace and edgings. By additionally incorporating beads, enchantingly delicate and unique pieces of jewellery can be produced.
In this course, we will get to know the Occhi technique more closely using a shuttle and/or needle. In combination with shiny threads and interesting beads, we will design various pieces of jewellery such as earrings, bracelets or pendants together.
In the course, you will learn a lot about the different materials, and you will then be ready to tackle your own Occhi jewellery collection!
