    I loved the experience. I loved working with the master craftsman in furniture restoration. I learned a lot. I was always provided with full information about the course and the flat I was going to stay in. The stay in the assigned flat was also very pleasant.

    One of the best experiences I had. !!! Although I love restoration, in this course I was able to acquire more tools and practice to continue learning. Enrico was fundamental for this course, as he is a person with a human warmth like few others, always making an effort to explain, understand and make the course perfect. Florence is a magical city, really charming and enchanting! To have done the course there was a dream come true. Thank you for giving people like me this possibility to learn and for always being ready to give us everything you can, for your organization and for being able to reconcile everything in time. Excellent organisation

    I am very happy with the furniture restoration course I took. The restorer has taught me many techniques and many “tricks” when restoring. Undoubtedly this is achieved with experience and professionalism. I also loved the organisation of the course. Everything was very well organised. I will come back to Florence and do another course. Thank you

    I found the course definitely useful, Enrico is a good teacher and very nice guy. In spite of my poor Italian he managed to make me understand everything.The only thing that not that positive is the limited time, there is a lot to learn, I think in any of these courses. But it was a good introduction for furniture restoration for sure.The accommodation was good, landlady was nice, too.Thank you for everything,
