Jewellery Making Workshop - Introduction to Silversmithing

Learn traditional jewellery making techniques in this one-day workshop.



6 hours Class size 4 to 8 guests       £155 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

A one-day course introducing you to the creative art of jewellery making.
You will be guided through the process of making a silver ring using traditional silversmithing techniques such as measuring, annealing, sawing, forging, soldering, filing, texturing, and polishing.
You will also be guided in the safe and proper use of your jewellery-making tools which will help you practise confidently and independently after your workshop.
Starting with a simple silver stacking ring, once you have got to grips with the main techniques, you will produce a ring of your design, having the freedom to experiment and play with ideas and details, allowing your creativity to shine. Whether you prefer a minimalist design or a more intricate style, the choice is yours. We encourage you to let your imagination run wild and create something truly unique.
