Recent reviews of Silver Charm Jewellery Making Class

  • 5/5 from Sarah Hurst, attended Oct 2026: I really enjoyed my class with Collette. She was really welcoming and made me feel really comfortable. I had never done a silversmith class before and she explained everything so that I felt confident. It was fun being able to oversee the whole process from design to completion and learn along the way and I am really pleased with the final piece. I would definitely do another class here and make something else as the environment was calm and creative and a really lovely way to spend a couple of hours.
  • 5/5 from Andy, attended Nov 2025: This was an excellent class! We really enjoyed ourselves, were very well taught by Collette and were very pleased with what we each made during the session. Many thanks Collette for a splendid afternoon!
  • 5/5 from Yasmin Eddleston, attended Oct 2025: I loved this class! Collette was fantastic and so helpful and knowledgeable! She took us through each stage of the process and I came away with a beautiful charm
  • 5/5 from Rose Fenn, attended Oct 2023: A stimulating and "in the zone" session with Collette. She's a great teacher, we had a laugh and she gave me lots of advice on making a wonderful (and surprisingly sophisticated!) pendant that has been much admired since. It's just the right amount of time to make something that you can take home so thoroughly recommend it for a relaxing afternoon of learning something new. Thanks Collette!
  • 5/5 from Annabel New, attended Oct 2023: My friend and I had an excellent experience with our teacher, Collette. Collette is professional, extremely experienced and super friendly too. We came away with charms to add to our bracelets that we are both incredibly proud of and will be re-booking soon! Thanks Collette! See you again soon!
  • 5/5 from Helen Roberts, attended Aug 2023: A great class, really fun and we all love what we made. Collette was very patient and very good at teaching. Would highly recommend booking this. Very easy to jump on the train from London too.
  • 5/5 from Rachel Marshall, attended Jan 2023: My sister and I had such a lovely afternoon at Collette's silver charm making class. The studio is easy to find and super accessible from central London. In the class Collette gave really clear instructions and advice, as well as lots of interesting additional insights into silversmithing, and we were both really pleased with the charms that we made.

  • 5/5 from Shao, attended Oct 2021: Collette was a great teacher and instructor through-out and she is informative, friendly, professional and patient.

  • 5/5 from Jane Lodeto, attended Jul 2019: An absolutely fantastic workshop. The venue is beautiful and central. Colette is lovely, skilled and patient. She arranged a great workshop for 9 of us to design and make our own silver charm. The making did need concentration but was really enjoyable and you really do make the charm all yourself. I would highly recommend Colettes work shops for a hen party or girls celebration for all ages.
  • 5/5 from Louise Romanis, attended Jul 2019: We had a wonderful experience with Collette. As a group of 9 we arranged a silver charm making session and we all had a great time. We couldnt believe that from going in with no experience we came out with 9 lovely silver charms in just 2 hours! Collette was informative and knowledgeable, guiding us patiently and somehow ensuring all 9 of us were on the right track! We sawed, hammered, drilled, filed and soldered our way through the 2 hours and really enjoyed ourselves. We have already been recommending the experience to our other friends!

  • 5/5 from Ania Anufrieva, attended Apr 2019: Brilliant class, Collete was helpful and knowledgeable, it was an evening well spent! Absolutely thrilled with the pendants we made
  • 5/5 from Christine Buske, attended Apr 2019: Had an amazing time! Collette is just fantastic at what she does and also a phenomenal teacher. She is not just cheerful and friendly, but all around amazing as a person and as a jewelry maker! I loved the workshop and will be coming back for more very soon!
