Jewellery & Silversmithing classes
Classes at the studio are in small groups, in a relaxed and sociable environment.
All abilities are welcome and many of the students who come to my classes are beginners, have an interest in silversmithing, but have never tried their hand at it. The classes also attract those who have some experience of making in the past and want to refresh or expand their knowledge.
I usually start new comers off with a pendant project, this ensures we run through a variety of techniques, use a selection of tools and give students a real taste of jewellery making.
Vouchers are available for the classes, they make a great gift for a special occasion or for a birthday.
Please see below for latest class dates.

Create your own designs
Once we have worked through the initial project I encourage students to create whatever they would like. I don’t set strict projects, because the classes are small it enables me to facilitate the students with whatever project they would like to undertake next.
I teach morning and evening courses that run for either 5 or 6 weeks and one-day workshops on Saturday mornings, Silver clay workshops or private classes throughout the year. Do check out the classes and dates below, or use the link to send me a message.
