About this Event

“Suitable for beginners or those with preliminary experience of silversmithing, this workshop offers you a chance to create your own trio of stacker rings using Sterling silver wires and traditional techniques.

“You will learn to size your finger, prepare then solder your rings, then shape and texture them.

“Each trio consists of two outer rings which will be hammered. Once everyone has made these you will be offered options for your central ‘feature’ ring where you might choose a different profile of wire, add a different texture or even a small silver ‘pebble’.

“After the workshop your pieces will be taken back to the tutor’s studio to be cleaned and polished. They can be collected either from Bishop’s Castle, a mutually agreed location or they can be posted to you (an additional cost, paid direct to the tutor, will be made for this last option - payment cash, card or BACS) about a week later.
