Carve Your own Silver Ring

EmailCreate your own silver ring from using a variety of carving tools and techniques, to create a completely bespoke piece of jewellery.
Sarah will have a range of visual aids ready including a variety of rings and images to help you choose your ring style and finish. She'll demonstrate how to use tools to shape the wax. You'll then carve your ring from jeweller's wax, learning about the ancient ‘lost wax’ technique. Once you’ve sculpted your ring in wax, it will be cast in silver and polished, ready for you to collect approximately 3 - 4 weeks later. Should you prefer to have your ring postage to you, postage can be paid for when attending your workshops.
Our friendly, purpose built studio is centrally located and well connected to transport links. Our silver jewellery courses are taught in small groups, of up to five students to enable creative, enjoyable learning with regular opportunities for 1:1 support and guidance from the tutor.
No previous experience required - perfect for complete beginners as well as those with some prior experience.

Sarah was absolutely wonderful. Guided me through the whole process and helped me achieve my rather complicated vision 😅
The whole process was super relaxing and I had a nice time. And of course, enjoyed the company of Sarah’s lovely dog 🖤
Can’t wait for the finished ring.

This was such a nice workshop to get creative, she was a good mentor and provided good examples of other peoples work / ideas to get inspired to jump right in! There’s lots of amazing tools to use and time flew by when I had realised that I was finally finished carving my ring!! Definitely recommend if you like to get creative, and be proud of something you’ve made 😊
