Silversmithing for beginners

Join us for our much-loved silversmithing class to craft your own pair of handmade sterling silver earrings or pendant.

You'll begin by looking at our examples before choosing the shape you like. Your teacher will then set you up with a bench peg and saw, you'll be guided through the process of cutting your silver into the desired shape.

Once your shapes are cut, you'll begin perfecting them with specialist files and emery paper. Once you're happy with the shape, it's time to choose your texture, choose from a hammer finish, matte, shiny or oxidised. We'll have a selection of beads and pearls for you to add to your design if you wish.

Finish by assembling your earrings with sterling silver ear hooks.
