Inspired by 18th Century Spanish antiques, this unique version features a paper-mache hand on top of a decorated 'arm', that contains your own personal reliquary. No soldering skills are required. You will learn a new technique for creating special little reliquaries (boxes) from matt board, metallic tape,
Apoxie Clay and metallic powders, plus plenty of beads, seed pearls, and other tiny wonders!
Fee: $125.00, includes all materials but please feel free to bring your own small ephemera, beads and pearls...

Please call the CASTLE at 510-204-9801 to reserve your spot! Note on photos: The small hand measures about 5 inches tall. I added butterfly wings, and an old cameo to the inside of the reliquary. The larger hand is about 7 inches tall and has a long reliquary that features a real 'mouse spine' inside.
