100% FREEForged Through Time — make a gazelle motif in metal
Make a gazelle design on metal with traditional chasing tools. This hands-on cultural workshop connects a motif from Dubai’s Saruq Al Hadid archaeological discoveries with the craft of decorating metal. No previous experience is required.
Representative metal-chasing photograph: a craftsperson in Tunis uses a hammer and liner to decorate metal. This is not the Dubai workshop, its tutor or its gazelle design.
