Beginner Jewellery-Making In 8 Weeks

Our popular weeknight classes are the best way for beginners to get into jewellery making in a lively, warm and friendly environment. The block starts on Mon 3 February and runs for 8 weeks until Mon 24 March, 5.30pm - 8pm.

The stone setting process teaches you many fundamental techniques in one project!

We start with basic ring making in copper or brass, students will learn measuring, texturing, shaping, cutting and soldering.
Then we move on to making a practice ring set with a cabochon stone (cabochon means it has a flat bottom and a smooth domed top).

Once your first setting is completed you can move to working in silver and produce another stone set ring with more interesting design elements.

Included in the course fee are copper and brass for practising on, 2 gemstones and a silver pack to make your ring. It also includes all consumables such as sandpaper, solder and chemicals. Extra metals and materials are available for purchase in the studio.
