Learn the art of fine silver jewellery making, using silver clay, an eco-friendly and fun
way to make silver jewellery. Take inspiration from shells or other items in nature to
make a truly unique pendant or drop earrings.
Silver clay is a relatively new product that can be worked like clay and yet is made of
pure silver particles, with a binder and water. When it is fired the result is a pure silver
piece which is of fine silver hallmark quality. You’ll spend the morning learning about
silver clay, designing your piece, texturing, filing and sanding then leaving it to dry, before breaking for lunch. In the afternoon, you will fire your piece using a jewellers torch then sanding, polishing and finish it by attaching your fixings such as a chain or ear wires.
Chains are available to buy at an additional cost. This course is suitable for learners with
no previous knowledge of working with silver clay or those with experience with other
forms of jewellery making. It is also suitable for those with no experience yet of crafts or creative activities.
