Our classes are the best way for beginners to get into jewellery-making in a lively, warm and friendly environment. This Sunday course provides a solid foundation in jewellery fabrication.This block starts on Sunday 15 February and runs for 4 weeks till Sunday 8 March, 10am-1pm.
Beginners will practice the basic techniques in copper or brass and then move on to working in silver. An excellent first project for beginners in this class is to create a simple textured ring band - but once you have the basics down, it is fun to create earrings, pendants or other simple items. Students will learn to cut, heat, form and texture metal, and to solder using a jeweller's torch and silver solder, and finally to polish your work up to a beautiful finish: these classes are super satisfying!
This course fee does NOT include materials. Beginners should expect to spend at least $60 on materials for their ring-making project. All metals and stones, as well as quality findings and chains, are available for purchase each week in the studio.
This block is great for teens and kids over 12 or so. NOTE: Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an enrolled parent or caregiver.
Course fee $250, Early bird $225 till 18 January.
