2-Hour Rust Printing Class in Forli Emilia Romagna Tradition
Disvocer the local tradition of handmade “rust printing” on fabrics. In this workshop, located in the historical centre of Forlì skilled craftsmen carve decorative patterns on pear wood blocks, thus obtaining the printing stamps.
The wooden blocks are then soaked with printing dyes. This kind of printing is wash-resistant. The decorative patterns are either traditional symbols of Emilia Romagna’s rural world, such as the rooster, the “caveja” (the traditional wrought iron pivot with allegoric decorations, used to hold yokes in place), wheat spikes or grapes, or original floral or decorative motifs designed by the worskhop itself.
ItineraryRust-printing is a typical artisan technique of Emlia-Romagna region, it is a must see! You will be hosted by our local artisan shop to experience Handmade Rust Printing, our artisan will welcome you in her atelier-shop where she will show you how to create the wooden stamps, how to make the design, create the colour, last but not least, how to fix it.
