About this activity

Itinerary

In the morning, you will be picked up from your centrally-located hotel in Chiang Mai to the Nova Art Lab. The team of this professionally-run art and handicraft centre, specializing in working with particularly silver, welcome you to their humble working abode at around 09:30 hrs. Comprising of both professionally-trained Thai and western design team and trainers, the day starts with an introduction of what’s in store for the coming 5 hours. As the classes are always small, you will be guaranteed to get personal, hands-on attention to master required techniques such as sawing, piercing, hammering, soldering and surface treatment. (NB: the course excludes the cost of the material – silver in this respect. Depending on your creation, the charges for the material will have to be paid on spot by the guests. Prices per gram are around USD 2 and an average ring will use approximately USD 25 -30 in silver, depending on the current market price of silver).

Halfway through the class, a one hour break for lunch will be taken (lunch is not included) before finalizing your own design. At the end of the afternoon, you proudly can take your own creation back home with you.
