Discover porcelain gilding, a refined experience to enhance your creations. The workshop invites you to decorate porcelain objects with gold and a quill.

Immerse yourself in the poetic and delicate world of gilding on porcelain, guided by Arnold in his charming workshop.

Workshop itinerary (3 hours):

• Welcome and introduction to the basics of gilding, with a demonstration of traditional techniques.
• You have two options: either choose two secondhand plates sourced in France by Arnold, or bring your own porcelain tableware—as many pieces as you’d like, with no limit.
• Decoration and creation: the first hour is devoted to sketching and selecting the designs you’d like to apply to your tableware. The following two hours are dedicated to applying gold leaf to the pieces using a quill pen.
• Bonus: complimentary snack.
• Your creations are then fired by the workshop within 24 hours. You can pick them up the very next day or, if you don’t live in Paris, choose the mailing option, available for an additional fee.

A gourmet break: enjoy a cozy snack, accompanied by a hot or cold beverage and a few treats, for an experience that’s as creative as it is welcoming.

Treat yourself to a moment of escape and creativity that blends tradition and modernity!
