The workshop in detail
PRIVATE WORKSHOP: enjoy a privileged moment with the artisan and enjoy personalised guidance to make 3 unique creations!
Marie will offer you an immersion in the world of jewellery through two sessions of 4 hours each, on two consecutive days. This experience will be a unique opportunity to deepen your knowledge of the subject, and why not to encourage you to take the plunge and make it your profession!
During the first session, you will discover the workshop and Marie's world over a welcome drink. This will be the perfect opportunity to get to know each other! Throughout this initiation, Marie will share her knowledge and advice. The jeweller will give you a detailed presentation of the various jeweller's tools and their use. She will also tell you about the choice of raw materials to use and how to obtain them, as well as the current legislation on the use of precious metals. Marie will also coach you on the different steps and procedures involved in starting a professional jewellery business.
During the second session, you will have the opportunity to practice and perfect different jewellery techniques and to create three pieces of jewellery of your choice, inspired by a beautiful selection proposed by Marie. Starting with a silver wire, you will give life to your creations step by step: sawing, filing or soldering will no longer hold any secrets for you! You will also be able to personalise your jewellery with a pierced stone and material effects (hammered, polished, frosted).
At the end of this privileged time in the company of a passionate jeweller, you will go back home with your three pieces of jewellery and a complete syllabus to pursue your work perfectly.
This workshop is offered in several languages simultaneously. The artisan will adapt the language of the workshop according to the participants present.

Meet Marie
Jeweller
In another life, Marie studied modern literature and was destined for a career in this field!
At the end of her studies, she left for South America for a year to perfect her Spanish and made a major discovery that would change her life: jewellery! She met jewellers there and it was the trigger for her.
On her return, she enrolled at the Arts et Métiers de Bruxelles at the Institut Jeanne Toussaint. There, she took a three-year training course in jewellery and learned the techniques and aesthetics of jewellery making, gemology, graphic design and lost wax modelling.
She then continued her training for 2 years with artisans: in a jewellery workshop near Charleroi and with an artisan jeweller in Brussels, amongst others. In 2012, she set up her own workshop and devoted herself fully to the creation and sale of her jewellery collections. At the same time, she offers discovery workshops and training courses for professional jewellery making.
Marie creates 925 silver jewellery and is approved by the Royal Belgian Mint. Her creations are set with carefully selected gemstones and natural freshwater pearls.
