Clay workshop

Our hiking adventure will begin in the heart of Chianti along the Via Romea Sanese. We will hike to admire the beauty of this territory, characterized by unique panoramic views: in the distance, we may catch sight of villages and cities such as San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, and Siena. The route we will follow will also offer us the opportunity to get to know the history of Chianti more closely, with a visit to an Etruscan necropolis and a medieval village. Our exploration in nature will ultimately lead us to a clay workshop, where we will experience a clay workshop.

During our workshop, a skilled artisan will show us modeling techniques to create various ceramic objects—plates, bowls, cups—or even to bring to life a true sculptural work in terracotta. Alessandro will guide us step by step, helping us bring to life an idea born in the moment or kept within us for a long time. Our pieces will never be “right” or “wrong”; they will simply be an expression of our desire to connect with clay, the material.
