Introduction to Silversmithing The course will be held at my home studio in Yorkshire Bridge, a lovely space with views towards Winn Hill.

Along the way, you’ll learn essential skills such as piercing (sawing), soldering, shaping, twisting, cleaning and polishing. Perfect for beginners, this exciting workshop is a great introduction to jewellery making in a relaxed, friendly and supportive setting. With a combination of demonstrations and personalised guidance, you’ll complete a beautiful, handmade silver item that you've designed. You'll have time to make a ring, pendent, earrings, or even set a stone into your design if you'd like. Please note that the cost of the course doesn't include the price of the silver that you use, that will be charged at the rate it was purchased at the end of the session.
