Le Arti Orafe Jewellery School:
Conceived and founded in Florence in 1985 by Giò Carbone, Le Arti Orafe Jewellery School and Academy is the most prestigious private italian school for contemporary jewellery, organising and running courses in subjects relating to jewellery making, jewellery design, engraving and related subjects, conceived along original lines that combine technical training, artistic research and contemporary design.
The school has always stood out because of its activities in promoting jewellery culture in the widest and most complete sense of the expression. Our completely innovatory teaching methods has left the old stereotypes behind and invented, tested and refined a creative, personalised way of learning, without losing sight of the acquisition of the techniques and concepts.
Since 2003 the school has been the only private Training Agency accredited by the Educational Authority to run training courses in the jewellery/goldsmithery sector.
Location and Facilities:
At Le Arti Orafe it is not a case of learning to design and make a certain kind of jewellery - the 'Florentine' or the 'contemporary' - but rather of acquiring the methodologies that allow production of, and experimentation with, all types of jewellery.
The results of our teaching methods can also be assessed from the competitions, exhibitions and projects in which our students take part every year.
The school has also always enjoyed collaboration with the top schools and most established institutes around the world.
The school offers a wide range of jewellery Making courses, from which the students can choose that most suited to their training requirements.
From the first day of the course the students work with silver and stones, of which they have a huge store available. All materials are included in the fees, and students keep all the jewellery they make, except for one piece which remains to the School.
