Join jeweller Fiona Dowling for a fun jewellery making workshop in Gloucestershire where you’ll create beautiful silver jewellery using sea glass or pottery. This creative session combines traditional jewellery-making techniques with the unique charm of found materials!
You don't need any experience to join. Perfect for beginners and improvers, you’ll be guided step by step through the process in a supportive studio environment, learning essential skills along the way.
What to expect:
  • Learn the fundamentals of silver jewellery making.
  • Practice techniques including sawing, soldering, filing, hammering, hand-stamping, and finishing.
  • Create your own bezel setting from scratch.
  • Set sea glass or pottery into a ring and/or pendant.
  • Transform natural materials into wearable jewellery.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with your own handcrafted silver jewellery piece and the skills to continue exploring jewellery making at home.
What you'll get
  • You will leave this workshop with a piece of unique sea glass jewellery and having experienced the joy of handmade design in a welcoming environment!
  • The cost of the silver is not included in the workshop fees. The approximate cost of these materials is between £30-£50 and payable to the tutor on the day.

Fiona Dowling


Fiona has 20 years of experience in the Jewellery Industry, a BA from Edinburgh College of Art and an MA from the Royal College of Art, London.

After years of making jewellery on her own, Fiona now loves making as part of a group and passing her skills on to others. She says, “It’s all about gathering together and feeling really satisfied with what you have created - where the experience is as precious the jewellery you’ve made. It’s amazing to see what can be created with a basic set of tools and some guidance.”

New Brewery Arts is Cirencester’s creative heart — a vibrant cultural charity housed in the historic buildings of the former Cirencester Brewery.
After the brewery’s closure in 1937, the site fell into disuse and was nearly lost to demolition. Thanks to a visionary local group, two of the remaining buildings were restored and transformed into craft workshops, opening as Cirencester Workshops in 1978.
Its mission is to champion craft — making it, learning it, and supporting the people who do it. Its courses, workshops, makers’ studios, 100% UK-made craft shop, and café all contribute to a vibrant creative hub at the heart of Cirencester.
