Intuitive Jewelry Making Labs
Free your artistic spirit and discover everything you need
to create stunning pieces that tell your unique story.
About my teaching method and the 'Poetry of Handmade'
Join me in discovering the poetry of metalwork, where every creation becomes a personal act of artistic expression.
Through my classes I'd like to show the beauty of transforming a simple piece of metal into a story to wear.
Each creation is a journey of discovery, where attention to the smallest detail reveals the poetry of handmade
and my personal act of rebellion against mass production and old teaching methods.
As both a creative and teacher, I've moved away from traditional teaching methods that treat all students as identical.
I believe in learning through intuition, emotion, and individual expression, making the learning process more natural, purposeful and intimate. This is more than just jewelry—it's a journey of creative discovery where technique meets emotions, and where every piece tells your unique story.

Emotion, Intuition & Tailor-made Programs
In my workshops, learning flows through emotion and intuition, not just technical instructions.
While you'll quickly master essential jewelry making techniques, your journey will be uniquely yours-shaped
by your creativity and personal goals. I'll also share practical tips for creating at home, even in small spaces,
making this craft accessible for everyone.

Develop your personal style
Drawing from my extensive background as a designer, educator, and consultant, I invite you to embark on an intimate journey into the world of jewelry design. This course goes beyond traditional techniques,
it's about discovering your authentic creative voice and bringing it to life through metal.
Learn to develop distinctive collections that reflect your unique perspective rather than following existing trends. I'll share my entire creative process to let you master the design methodology, from initial concept and inspiration to finished piece. We'll begin by developing sophisticated mood boards to capture your inspiration, progress through detailed sketching, and translate your vision into digital designs to avoid waste of time and material.
The heart of our journey lies in the hands-on creation of your pieces.
You'll master the main techniques including hand piercing, silver soldering, and the contemplative art of wax carving. Each skill you acquire becomes a new tool in your creative arsenal, enabling you to transform your ideas into tangible expressions of your artistic vision.
What sets this course apart is its focus on developing your personal design language.
Together, we'll cultivate your innate creativity into a confident, signature style that makes your pieces instantly recognizable. By the end of our time together, you'll possess both the technical expertise and creative confidence to craft jewelry that tells your unique story and resonates with your authentic voice.
Join me in this transformative experience where craftsmanship meets self-expression
and every piece you create becomes a reflection of your artistic journey.
All material for sample projects is included while a list of material and suppliers
will be available for the final collection

E' stata un'esperienza bellissima e molto gratificante! Non avevo mai fatto orecchini in questo modo ma Sabrina è stata bravissima a spiegarci come dovessimo fare le cose e stimolare la nostra creatività.
Consiglio a tutti, un workshop fantastico!
I took a wax carving course with Sabrina and it was one of the best decisions I made! Not only is she talented and interesting but is also very informed about jewelry and extremely attentive to making sure I learn as much as possible in the little time that we had. Overall it was such a fun course and left me feeling so inspired to dive into new projects with wax carving with all the skills I learned! Thank you so much Sabrina :)
Ho partecipato al corso intensivo da 15h ed è stata un’esperienza meravigliosa!
Sabrina è un’insegnante paziente, precisa, preparata e attenta alle esigenze espressive di ogni allievo, oltre ad essere una persona ed artista davvero unica.
Thank each one of you for your trust and time with me!
STAY CURIOUS!
