6 hours Class size 1 to 8 guests       £110 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

This one-day course is the perfect introduction to jewellery making and silversmithing. Whether you are new to the art of jewellery making and silversmithing, would like to improve your current skills or treat a friend or loved one, this course is suitable for all abilities.
New students are offered the chance to create their own personalised silver ring or bangle with a range of shapes, sizes, and surface finishes to choose from. This project is perfect for introducing you to the basics of silversmithing, such as annealing, shaping, piercing (sawing), soldering, filing, and polishing.
For those who already have some experience in jewellery making, or who have something else that they would particularly like to make, tell us your ideas, and we will do our best to help you realise your vision. A skilled tutor will be on hand throughout the day to offer guidance and advice with your creations.
The course fee includes use of all tools, equipment and consumables.
“I just wanted to say that I really, really enjoyed the workshop on I attended and I couldn’t be more delighted with the piece that I made… As a tutor Olivia has a lovely gentle way of managing a workshop and had time for everyone and did it all with a smile. I too am hooked.”
— Rosie
What you'll get
As students will each use a different amount of silver, the material cost is additional and payable on the day. To give you an example, silver for a ring would cost between £5 and £15, and for a bangle between £25 and £50 depending on its weight, so it is up to you how much you spend. There are no other additional costs, as all tools, equipment and consumables will be provided inclusive of the course fee.
Knowledge required
Suitable for beginners and makers with experience.
What to bring
Glasses for close-up work, a hairband for long hair, and a packed lunch.
