Course content:
A day of indulgence when, with no prior experience, we emerge ourselves working with Precious Metal Clay to create a pendant or a pair of silver earrings.

During the day you will learn all about the different metal clays available and how each clay type can be used and fired.

While making your jewellery, you will learn how to roll, shape, texture, decorate and cut the clay for your designs.

We will use a gas torch to fire the earrings or a pendant. This process converts the clay into 99% fine silver.

Your silver jewellery will then be burnished and polished ready for you to wear home

Please note that you will be required to pay approximately £22* on the day to cover the cost of clay and silver wire.

Pure and sterling silver costs are increasing and the charge is an estimate only.

Fees for your course: £24
