Ever dreamed of making your own jewellery? Led in the comfort of a cosy and welcoming studio space, discover how to craft your own unique jewellery using the ancient technique of sand casting.
Whether you're pals, companions, mother-daughter duos, or any other combination, join me for a delightful jewellery-making experience. Leave with your own stunning, one-of-a-kind jewellery piece ready to wear!
Make your Silver Ring or Pendant with sand casting, 1 session of 3h
The workshop kicks off with a coffee or tea, looking a varied samples of what you will practice on the session, followed by demonstrations. You have the opportunity to choose from a variety of ring or pendant models to replicate in silver. Using the delft clay casting method, we will press the object into an aluminum mold filled with specialized sand that retains its shape when compressed. Silver will be melted in a crucible and poured into the mold, creating a silver casting from your object. The casting will then need to be finished and polished to your taste!
You will leave with a gorgeous piece of solid silver jewellery, ready to wear and proudly show off!
No previous experience is required; you will be guided through the entire process step by step.
All tools and consumable materials such as delft clay and silver will be provided. The price includes materials to make a ring up to 4mm width or a pendant of 2 cm diameter. If you'd like to upgrade to a thicker ring or larger pendant, you will simply be charged for the additional weight in silver (calculated in class based on the final weight).
There will be some exciting optional upgrades available in-class, including gemstone setting, gold plating or engraving to make your ring even more special (available on the day).
Add-ons available for this class
- 18ct gold plating (£45)
- 2mm cubic zirconia stone & setting (£35)
Please wear closed shoes for safety reasons. Avoid long, loose-fitting sleeves and anything that might catch or get caught while working. Tie back long hair and bring reading glasses if needed.
