18k Granulation

Granulation is the ancient technique of surface embellishment using tiny spherical granules of gold. One of today’s modern masters of granulation, Kent Raible, leads this hands-on survey of the complete process of granulation. Through lectures, demonstrations and lots of time at the bench, you will gain experience at every step in the process. Learn how to alloy a special 18k gold for granulation, then pour ingots for wire and sheet, make, apply, and fuse granules, and finish your work. Students design and create one or more pieces to take home. Gold will be available for purchase. Prerequisite: Fabrication 3 or experience.
