Learn to craft your own silver ring from scratch at North Bar Social in Otley, where you'll master everything from sawing and filing to annealing and hammering in a welcoming, step-by-step workshop. Whether you're a complete beginner or you've worked with metal before, this class is designed so everyone moves through together at a pace that works – no one gets left behind, and you'll understand not just how to do each technique, but why it works.
You'll develop real skills over 2.5 to 3 hours: shaping your silver to fit perfectly, heating it to soften the metal, texturing it with a beautiful hammered finish, and learning the science behind how metal responds to heat and pressure. Your teacher will be right there alongside you, showing you exactly how to hold and handle each tool so you always know what you're doing. Halfway through, while your ring sits safely in the pickle bath, you'll get a proper break where you can grab a drink from the venue and chat with other makers.
All your safety equipment, aprons, and materials are provided, plus you'll get a handy reference guide booklet to take home. By the end of the class, you'll have made something genuinely special – a handmade silver ring that's entirely yours, crafted with techniques you'll be able to use again and again.

Hello! I’m Sofia, a passionate jeweller and workshop host. For six years I’ve been handcrafting beautiful pieces, and for the past two I’ve worked as a professional jeweller in a small Yorkshire workshop, specialising in repairs and custom commissions.
After completing a Graphic Design degree, I realised I’d rather create with my hands than on a screen. I saved some money, bought the tools, and I’ve never looked back. I now travel to lovely venues running warm, supportive silver jewellery workshops for all levels.
I love teaching and inspiring others to make lovely jewellery. Whether you’re a complete beginner or ready to develop your skills, my workshops give you the tools, time, and confidence to create what you love.
Come and make with me!
Sofia
