Study jewellery art in a jewel of Florence
An old traditional, small artisan school for top preparation in jewellery.

Amidst the beauty of Florence, the qualified teachers and artists of Le Arti Orafe teach the ancient art of making jewellery, transmitting their passion for jewellery, gold and precious stones. Established in 1985, the school incorporates gemmology, design and theory, practical workshops and a CAD studio in the heart of Florence, the jewellery capital of Italy. It also benefits from the collaboration of over 20 permanent teachers, craftsmen, artists, designers and professionals as well as other Italian and foreign professionals for special initiatives. Educational programmes are conceived and structured to guarantee students a thorough understanding of the industry.
