In this fun, creative workshop, learn basic jewellery-making techniques to make your own sterling silver gemstone ring. Choose a gemstone from a variety of semi-precious stones, such as turquoise, malachite, amethyst, agate, rose quartz and many more.
No prior jewellery-making or metalworking experience is required to create a beautiful piece of jewellery that you will treasure for years to come.
Over four and a half hours, you will be guided through the processes of soldering, sanding, polishing and finishing your new treasure.
This activity uses butane gas-powered handheld torches, which are easy to use for small jewellery pieces. Participants will receive instructions on simple silver soldering and studio safety.
Whether you love a plain or a pretty piece, with a variety of patterned bands and trims to choose from, this is your chance to craft jewellery that matches your style.
No experience needed—just bring your creativity!
Participants will receive an email before the class with instructions on the soldering process and safety in the studio.
Please tie long hair back and wear enclosed shoes. Safety glasses are provided or if you wear glasses be sure to bring them with you.
