Join us on our three hour, Precious Metal Silver Clay Jewellery Making, Half Day Workshop, and learn the fundamentals of creating your own beautiful solid silver jewellery.

Guided by your instructor you’ll make approximately two pieces of solid silver jewellery. The number of pieces you make will be dependant upon the size you make your pieces. You will have access to all our different textures, texture mats, moulds and shapes, to create wonderful, unique pieces of jewellery. What you choose to make (charms/pendants/earrings) is entirely up to you. Please note that ring making will not be covered during this workshop. You will learn the process of making jewellery with silver clay from start to finish. The first part of the day focusing upon how to handle, roll, shape and texture it, before drying and refining. The second part of the day will focus upon firing, polishing and learning how to patina. Your jewellery will be ready to take home with you on the day!
Precious Metal Silver clay is made up of very fine particles of recycled silver, water and a non toxic binder. When your piece is fired, the binder burns away, leaving you with solid fine silver. The process is truly magical. Art Clay fine (99.9%) silver will be used during this workshop.
You may get a little dusty, so we’ll provide an apron for you to wear on the day. Please don’t wear open toed shoes or sandals.
This workshop is aimed at those with no little or no experience of working with Silver Clay.
The workshop cost of £70 includes silver clay for your jewellery, use of tools and a sterling silver jump rings / earring wires.
