Asturian Azabache Workshop: Polish Your Own Gem
Taller de un díaArt
Discover the secrets of this unique organic gemstone. In this workshop, you will choose your own raw stone and transform it with your own hands. We will guide you through the process using different grits of sandpaper to shape the stone, leading to the most satisfying step: polishing it to reveal that signature intense black mirror shine.
Finally, we will drill the stone and add a sterling silver setting. The Result: You will walk away with a unique pendant or a pair of earrings, hand-crafted by you.
⚠️ Things to keep in mind:
Clothing: Sanding creates black dust. It washes out easily, but please wear dark clothes.
Manicure: We work closely with sandpaper, so your nail polish might get scratched.
Physical Effort: Sanding requires steady pressure with your hands and wrists. Not recommended if you have injuries in these areas.
