Available spots
Service Description
Join us for a hands-on journey into Cuerda Seca, a centuries-old ceramic technique. You’ll learn how to "draw" with oil and minerals to create crisp, dark outlines that hold pools of brilliant, jewel-toned glazes—resulting in a stunning, raised-relief masterpiece. Cuerda seca (Spanish for "dry cord") is a traditional ceramic originated in Islamic Spain (al-Andalus) and Central Asia during the late 10th to 14th centuries, used to decorate tiles with vibrant, compartmentalized glazes
