Sea Glass Silversmithing Experience

Join us for a creative silversmithing experience in Brighton!



4 hours Class size 1 to 6 guests       £125 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Thinking of making your own unique silver pendant or ring? Join me to learn the art of silversmithing in Brighton for the unique opportunity to transform sea glass into stunning, handcrafted jewellery pieces.
Suitable for complete beginners, you'll learn the essential techniques of silversmithing, including shaping, filing, and soldering sterling silver, and bezel setting sea glass. Under my guidance, you'll create your own bespoke sea glass ring or pendant in 925 sterling silver.
You will be part of a small group of up to 6 participants. By the end of the 4-hour workshop, you will have your very own handmade, unique sterling silver ring or pendant!
You will learn to design your own ring or pendant from scratch by choosing your sea glass piece. You will make the setting from silver wire and sheet; you’ll learn how to make the perfect size bezel for your glass and solder the back plate, bezel, and other parts together. Lastly, you will file and polish your piece and set your sea glass. You'll be surprised how much you can learn in 4 hours.
What you'll get
You will make your very own sterling silver sea glass ring or pendant, which you will take away at the end of the session!
Knowledge required
  • Beginner-friendly.
  • You will need to have good dexterity and strength in your fingers and be able to see what you are doing so that you can solder using a blow torch safely -- plenty of help on hand!
What to bring
  • If you wear glasses please bring them with you.
  • If you have your own sea glass please bring a few pieces and I’ll help you select the piece that will work best on the day (rings -- no smaller than 0.8cm x 0.8cm and no bigger than 1.5cm x 1.5cm. Pendant -- 2cm by 2cm).
  • It should sit flat on a table with no/little wobble, but if you're unsure, then bring it all along and we can have a look to find the right piece.

Hi, I’m Tasha. I was lucky enough to grow up a few minutes’ walk from the beach on the rugged North coast of Cornwall. As a child, I spent a great deal of time outdoors and would always look for glass pebbles whenever I was at the coast - which was most of the time! I remember loving the smooth, cold feeling of holding them in my hand.
After being made redundant in 2022, I had more time to walk on the beaches of the South coast of England. While some have very little glass, the pieces I found became my treasures. Seeking out sea glass has become my favorite way to relax and connect with nature. I’ve visited some wonderful beaches - it's rare for me to have a pocket or a bag without at least one stray piece of glass in it these days!
As my collection has grown, I found myself wondering what to do with it and was drawn towards the idea of making silver jewelry.
Part of my ‘day job’ as a manager for a care organization has involved teaching and coaching, which I enjoy. So it seems natural to start running my silversmithing workshops. I absolutely love these as I get to talk with people about my two passions, sea glass and jewelry, and help participants create special pieces of jewelry that they will keep forever and remember making.
