JEWELLERY DESIGN MASTERS COURSE

DESCRIPTION
The main objective of this Master program is to give the students an advanced specialistic learning in a very important craft and industrial field. In fact, the main part of the European goldsmith production is realized in Italy. The aim is to combine the goldsmith art and the jeweller’s craft with the new technologies of modeling, uniting the use of traditional techniques to the instruments of our times, such as the design, the goldsmith technologies (industrial as well), computer design (two-dimensional and three-dimensional CAD modeling) . The synergy between the Laba (Libera Accademia di Belle Arti) and the Lao (le Arti Orafe) allows the students to be able to undertake an ancient craft with a contemporary vision, with a view that includes the strategies of marketing and the evolution of the international market. The works done by the students are born from the advanced stylistic research supported by the analysis of the international market, the study of the materials and the study of new trends focusing on the requirements of the companies. 


 WHO IT IS FOR:
The Master in Jewellery of the Laba and the Lao is a top level artistic training for students who already got a 1st level or a 2nd level Diploma in subjects related to the design-fashion.
AIMS:
The course wants to improve and deepen the theoretical and technical capacities in the jewellery and jewel design. This Masters course wants to prepare students to a brilliant entrance in their professional life as artists, jewel designers/creators, through a strong basic training and a creative support according to the highest international professional standards.
DURATION:

EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATION:
The 1st level Masters Certificate is legally recognised by the Italian Ministry and Research (our law number 506/77 includes the Laba in the “Comparto Universitario” as High level Artistic Instruction Institution, aligned to European standards). The Masters certificate will be issued to students who will have successfully undertaken the final exams after having executed all the activities.
METHODOLOGY
The study program has theoretical and practical lessons, the attendance is compulsory. The first period of studies is concentrated in the preparation of the basics that tend to furnish those determining foundations in the preparation of a designer, the second one will be dedicated to the styling, to the exploration of the professional circles, to the preparation of a portfolio. For each project proposed all possible variations are analyzed and the choices made are determined by a creative process derived by the acquired mastery of the instruments, the techniques, the materials. Thus, a special emphasis to visits to companies, meeting with famous artists, critics, and businessmen.
