Masterclass with Paula Treimane

Paula Treimane has set up her studio in the premises of the Artists’ Union with an enviable view of the river Daugava. Paula not only develops her jewellery and creates personalised accessories for her clients, but also offers them the opportunity to make their own pieces. Stepping into the role of an apprentice, working alongside a master, could be a rewarding experience. A good gift idea at a time when we are looking for feelings and emotions rather than things.

It’s no secret that people decorate mainly out of sentimental and emotional feelings. What gives jewellery meaning is the circumstances in which we receive them. A gift from someone special or a souvenir from a meditative journey may not be measurable in monetary terms. Most jewellery artists I have spoken to say that the process is the most rewarding for them, so this is another reason to try your hand at making your own jewellery.

The masterclasses at Paula’s workshop are open to all ages. No prior knowledge is necessary. The class will involve designing a piece of jewellery: a silver ring, a pendant, earrings or a bracelet. Paula will take care of the materials. Contact her to find out more about availability. It is possible to realise your special idea or design as well.
