This Sunday afternoon block is a short course on jewellery-making. It starts on Sun 28 September and runs for 4 weeks until Sun 23 November, 2pm - 5pm.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. Learning to cut, heat, form and texture metal - 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.
These blocks are also a nice way for existing students or more advanced makers to work on more challenging projects and join friendly classes in our well-equipped warm studio!
Please note this is a mixed level class and no materials are supplied, students are expected to purchase these as required 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 $280, Early bird pricing $252 till 5 Oct,
