5Marble Carving on Naxos
This was one of the most fun things I've ever done. JB takes the time to explain the properties of marble, discuss options for what you'd like to carve and guides you to bring your vision to reality. We took on a project that was maybe a bit too advanced for the time allotted but were happy with the result.
2Safety aspects need improvement otherwise would have been an enjoyable experience
Basically quite an enjoyable experience but spoilt by the fact that health & safety was poor. As a complete beginner without any experience of using a high speed angle grinder, the safety induction was minimal, and the guard and handle had been removed from the tool. This workshop is definitely for people with previous experience of using such tools. And be aware that you have to sign a waiver stating that you accept all responsibility for any accidents.
5Wonderful experience!
This was one of the most fun experiences I ever had! A must-do in Naxos! My husband and I had the best time and we enjoyed Jb teaching us every step of the way! He is a funny person and really made this experience for us! He is very knowledgeable about marble! Highly recommend! He is encouraging and really helps you out whenever you need it and his lovely dog and kitty were a bonus!
5Marble Memories
A fascinating and informative hands-on exploration of marble sculpture and art. Come with a plan in mind for what you would like to create. You leave with your artistic ambitions fulfilled and wanting more. JB provides the right amount of support needed while creating your product. It was so cool watching your sculpture come to "life" out of the marble slab. Highly recommend this unique experience!
5Unexpected Joy!
I truly didn’t know what to expect…. I have been to a few other Cycladic islands but never saw the opportunity to carve my own marble item. I took it. JB is every bit the artist… intent and passionate. be ready to be pushed out of your comfort zone if you have never used .a carving tool… I never have but really enjoyed the process. Thanks to JB … highly recommed the experience.
5DIY fun
Great fun when we got started with the tools, carving the marble, shaping it and polishing it to bring home, we made a tea cup!

About Naxos
Naxos, the largest of the Cyclades, mixes long sandy beaches, mountain villages, marble quarries and a Venetian old town.
Naxos Town, the island's capital, is a whitewashed port with a Venetian castle on the hill above and narrow lanes winding through its centre. Out on the harbour islet stands the Portara, a huge marble doorway, all that remains of an unfinished temple of Apollo begun in the sixth century BC. The island is greener than most of its neighbours, with fertile valleys, springs and the Cyclades' highest peak, Mount Zas.
