Join me for a half a day of jewellery making and silversmithing at my lovely woodland studio in the New Forest!

Course description: We will cover the basics of jewellery making and silversmithing, including forming, soldering, texturing, and piercing sterling silver. You will make a project of your choice from sterling silver stacking rings, a bracelet, a pendant, a pair of simple earrings or studs, or a pair of cufflinks with pre-made findings. I will show you how to emboss or stamp your pieces with meaningful patterns or words.

Timings & location: The course is taught by me, Natalia, at my jewellery studio near Boldre, New Forest. There are morning (10am-1pm) and afternoon (1pm-4pm) courses for you to choose from. Full address and instructions will be provided on booking. There will be plenty of hot drinks and biscuits.

Cost: All tools, equipment and copper samples are included in the course fee. Cost of silver is extra and payable on the day, based on the weight used by each student.
