About this Event
You will produce at least one, but most likely between 2-3 sterling silver and / or brass stacking rings to wear home.
During this experience you'll learn about the tools and equipment and then how to size, form, saw, solder, shape, hammer (texturize) and polish sterling silver using tools such as a caliper, jewelers saw, files, multiple hammers, a butane torch and a flex shaft among others.
First, we measure your finger and determine the length of sterling silver wire we'll need to use. You'll then saw the wire, form and prepare it for soldering, seal the joint with a torch, shape it into a perfect fitting ring with a hammer and mandrel and file and polish until it's ready to wear. We will do this as many times as possible and in brass as well - time permitting.
I will teach you how to use and care for the tools and materials as well as the various possibilities with your new skills and how you can set up your very own jewelry studio after falling in love with your new skill set.
Other things to note:
I limit this to 2 people (unless you book a private group in which I can accommodate 3) so it’s likely you’ll have a private lesson!
Please remember to wear closed toe shoes and to tie your (if long) hair back. All materials and equipment will be provided otherwise.
