About this course:
An introductory course to jewellery making and fine metalworking using recycled or reclaimed materials and found objects.
Multimedia Artist and Maker Arthur Scott will lead you through creating your own accessories and curios, incorporating your small found objects. These could be sea glass, semi-precious gemstones, or even a nut or bolt you found at the side of the road.
You will learn a variety of traditional techniques and use whichever ones you need to bend, solder, or peen recycled copper or brass into your desired piece, whether that’s a ring, pendant or charm.
You will also discover fascinating connections to Derby Museums’ collections of making, which chart the progress of Derby’s ongoing manufacturing history and the people who were involved.
Who is this course for?
This course is suitable for complete beginners, as well as those with some jewellery or metalworking experience or who want to refresh their skills. All levels of experience are welcome!
Participants must be aged 18 years and over.
Do I need to bring anything?
All materials, tools, equipment and aprons will be provided. However, we encourage you to bring any small items you would like to incorporate into your jewellery, as well as any photos or drawings you would like to use as inspiration.
