Day 1

On your first day we’re going to get your heart rate going by bringing out the big blowtorch to do some sand casting. Sand casting is where we use a fine sand to create a mould from a small object, for example a seed, shell, a much loved trinket or anything small and robust.

We’ll then heat the silver till it’s molten (the really flipping exciting bit!) and pour your metal into the mould. A little cleaning up later and you’ll have a ready to wear piece created by yourself!

We’ll also show you how to safely set up a soldering area and how to do daily checks on your equipment. While you’re waiting for your turn to do the sand casting we’ll be hammering away and creating fold formed pieces which can be turned into objects or jewellery.

Day 2

On your second day, we’ll be focusing on chain and component making. In the photo shown is one of thousands of styles of chain you can create. We’ll help you to design your very own, plus you can add semi precious beads and you’ll forge your very own clasp. This will truly perfect your clean up and soldering skills ready for the projects you work on during the rest of the week.

Day 3

During your third day we’ll spend a few hours perfecting flush and tube settings, plus we’ll show you how to make your own tools to use for this setting which you’ll get to take home. Once you’ve mastered the setting, you’ll make a simple piece of jewellery with your choice of flush or stone setting feature.

Day 4

Spend the first part of your morning sifting through our vast stone collection, which is filled to the brim with vibrant natural colours and unique shapes. You can opt for a cut or uncut stone like the one pictured. Pick your favourite and we’ll get to work on making it into a beautiful piece of jewellery. We’ll be building on your existing stone setting skills by using thicker bezel wire, adding texture to your backplate and you can even add a border and decoration too.

Day 5

Our final day! We will have spent the first few days building up your skills to make you into a kick-ass intermediate silversmith. You’ll be confident and beaming with your new skills and now it’s time to implement them into your final project, locket making!

You’ll spend some time designing your locket, deciding how many layers to add, whether or not you want stones, maybe even adding a little texture or a surprise element inside. We’ll show you how to whip up an incredible, fully functioning locket from start to finish in a single day.
