The basic ceramic decoration course is aimed at learning the hot decoration techniques for making majolica. Students will learn the techniques of overglaze and sub-crystalline decoration, in order to obtain ceramics painted with motifs chosen by the student

The basic program includes the decoration of a terracotta plate provided by the laboratory.

The processing steps will be:

- enamelling of the piece with white enamel

- firing to obtain artistic ceramics (majolica)

At the end of the admission package of 10 hours of lessons, students will be able to continue the pottery course by purchasing from single hour to hourly packages to scale up to their choice with offers on quantity. In this way each student will be able to choose how long they want to make their learning path last.

All programs will take place always keeping in mind the learning needs of the student.
