Highlights
This paper mache jewelry workshop in Lecce introduces guests to the city’s papier-mâché tradition through a hands-on and creative experience. At Lady Papavero’s atelier-boutique, participants create their own ring or brooch using two different techniques. During the drying time, they enjoy a short walk through Lecce’s historic centre, with stops at two sites linked to the history of papier-mâché in the city. The experience ends back at the atelier, where each piece is personalised with decorative finishes before guests leave with their handmade creation and a unique memory of Lecce. No previous experience is needed, making this activity ideal for beginners, art lovers, and travellers looking for authentic things to do in Lecce through art, history, local culture, and a handmade souvenir to take home.

About Lecce
Lecce is a Baroque city in Italy's heel, built in honey-coloured limestone and carved with flowers, animals and saints on every façade.
Lecce's soft local limestone could be carved like wood, and the architects of the seventeenth century used it to cover churches and palaces in garlands, cherubs, animals and plants, a style called Leccese Baroque. The Basilica of Santa Croce has the richest façade, and the Piazza del Duomo is a closed square with a campanile. A Roman amphitheatre lies half uncovered in Piazza Sant'Oronzo, and the city is sometimes called the Florence of the South.
Top-ranked sights in Lecce: Lecce Basilica of Santa Croce (Basilica Di Santa Croce), Lecce Roman Amphitheatre (Anfiteatro Romano di Lecce), Porta Napoli.
