Shape a Mosaic Inspired by Animals and Nature's Forms
From EUR 50
Colorful fish, geometric snails, stylized flowers, and small animals with a curious look: in the Amarganta workshop, you can create your own personal mosaic by choosing from original designs inspired by nature and ancient iconographic tradition.
From the Saraghina, a symbol of the Riviera, to the stylized tulip, passing through the snail from Aquileia or the Byzantine duck from the Chapel of Sant'Andrea: each design combines creativity, high-quality materials, and craftsmanship knowledge.
An ideal activity for those who want to experience the art of mosaic in a creative way, starting from fun and easily recognizable models.
