The Universe of Silver
An immersive journey into the world of silver manufacturing. Jewellery creations, decorative objects and carefully crafted symbols of religious art can be found in the centenary silver workshop of Alcino Silversmith, in the heart of Porto!
In this experience you will be able to discover the complete history of the company, every corner of our workshop, interact with our artisans in loco and observe in detail the manufacturing process, learn about several goldsmithing techniques (from casting, rolling, molding and chiseling), as well as visiting our main store and our one of a kind showroom, which is divided into two rooms with distinct environments.
The visit costs 8,00 Euro per person.
