€ 150 per person (min 3)

For years, in addition to the activity of producing stained glass windows, this artisan workshop has also organized courses for learning glassmaking techniques. This will be a true "full immersion" in the world of glass allowing you to make, using the Tiffany technique, an everyday object such as lamps, glass boxes, photo frames, etc..

The course will take place within the workshop and will be attended by no more than 5 people per course, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. During the course you will make an object, accompanied by the experienced craftsman, thus having the opportunity to measure your artistic and manual skills. At the end you will be able to take home the work you have created yourself. Afterwards, the workshop will remain at your disposal for all clarifications and insights.

Host presentation

Vetreria Artistica Marcello Ragone 
For us, artistic glassmaking means making the most of traditional glassmaking techniques. This is why we have chosen over the years to maintain the dimension of a craft workshop with the conviction that a growth in quality and personality was to be preferred to a growth in production capacity, always privileging the creative aspect and paying great attention to proposing unique designs forms and ideas. In our workshop you can see touch and understand what makes a stained glass window, a lamp, a piece of jewelry unique. Victorian, modernism, Gaudi and Art Deco find space and light in stained glass windows, lamps and everything that comes to life in our workshop in Lucca's historic center.
