Optional premium upgrades will also be available during the workshop for purchase from the instructor. Students may choose more refined bases, including sandalwood bases, for an additional $10 per student. Imported Australian abalone shell and pre-cut shaped mother-of-pearl pieces will be available for an additional $15 per student.
