This weekend was the open house of the AFEDAP school in Paris. This training structure, which has just celebrated its 22nd anniversary, prepares its students for several diplomas related to jewellery:
- CAP Arts and Techniques of Jewellery
- Jewellery Designer
- Jeweller Author, which allows students to train for the following options: jeweller – designer jeweller – contemporary jeweller.
The school is resolutely turned towards contemporary creation. I propose you to discover some visuals taken during my visit that I really appreciated. But we will talk about it again soon, the school will be the subject of an article on the site. In the meantime…
