Beginners silversmithing class  Come along and make a sterling silver ring, or if you prefer, a pendant necklace with a bezel gemstone or piece of sea glass. During the class, you will learn how to texture, pierce, form and solder metal. You can choose from our available genuine gemstones or sea glass collection on the day. If you'd like bring along some of your own pieces and we can see if they're suitable. We finish up the class by setting your stone in your handmade setting. All materials, and refreshments are included! This workshop has limited spaces meaning each person will have 1:1 time with the tutor and particular attention can be taken when using the blowtorch- this is great for those of you who might find heat work a little scary!
