Reviving the images of the past - become a master restorer
How lovely is the patina of the past that enriches objects with stories of decades, centuries and even millenia. Why, therefore, would one want to continually buy new objects when old ones are so valuable? At the Kavčič Restoration Workshop in Šentjošt you can try your hand at a carving and gilding restoration workshop and experience one of the most authentic ways of preserving the precious past. You will learn about basic restoration procedures, which restore old items to their former state, and the material and tools used. Of course, you will also get down to work and try your hand at various restoration processes, from the application of pure gold to colouring, and you will also create your own unique souvenir to take home.
