Silver Jewellery Set – 2 day course

You will design and make, over two days, a jewellery set which could be a Mothers Day gift, employing specialist techniques to design and make your jewellery. Everyone on the course will make a brooch, and then item two of the set can be of your choosing – either a pendant, earrings or a bangle.

Our experienced tutor will teach you how to transform silver into a two piece jewellery set. You will gain knowledge of designing, forming and finishing your items using a variety of silversmithing methods and hand tools.

All the tools, materials (Sterling Silver) and teaching needed to produce both your items will be provided.

The course is suitable for beginners with no prior jewellery making experience, or for those with some knowledge who’d like to refresh and extend their skills. As our courses are limited to a maximum of 6 attendees, you will have expert tuition and we can adapt the teaching to suit your level of skill and desired outcome.

You can do this course as a stand alone or book multiple short courses to build up a bank of jewellery and metal-smithing skills.

Suitability: The course is open to anyone with an interest in jewellery making who is 18 years of age and above.

What to bring/wear: All tools and material are included. Please wear practical clothes and footwear (closed shoes, no open toes) and ensure arms/legs are covered. If you have long hair, please tie it back. You will need to bring an apron and a packed lunch.
