Six hours shaping stone in mid-relief
A full day working with mallet and chisel to create a raised Celtic knot. You’ll lower the background, shape the design so it stands proud, and sharpen the edges to catch the light. The work takes patience, but the rhythm of hammer and chisel makes the day absorbing.
This is the most popular course: long enough to develop technique and see real progress but contained enough to finish a complete piece in one session.
