Design and create your own silver pendant with the help of Charlotte Anne Duckworth, the Bristol silversmith otherwise known as The Silver Duck. Charlotte has been teaching and hosting workshops since 2013.
In this half-day workshop experience, you will be guided through designing and making your very own silver pendant. Charlotte will have inspiration and examples of what you can achieve throughout the day.
You design your shape and can practice any textures on copper before beginning on your final piece. You will be introduced to techniques such as doming and forming to create a stunning and meaningful pendant to you.
In the process you'll discover how to solder on jump rings, how to anneal and pierce silver. You're more than welcome to come along with your own design ideas.
Book on for a one-on-one experience, or bring your friends and book up to 4 people for this jewellery making experience. At the end you'll finish with a bespoke, handmade pendant, which Charlotte will have a silver chain for you to wear it from.

Had a great morning making lovely pendants
We had a great time yesterday making pendants! Charlotte was very welcoming, personable and really helpful. One of us came with a clear design in mind and she helped to make that come to life exactly as envisioned. The other didn't have an idea to start with, however she helped to workshop some ideas and find something that worked. We really appreciated the time, effort and patience that Charlotte put into helping us to create some beautiful jewellery and would recommend the workshop to others!
Had a fantastic time on this course! I was not expecting to be able to make the design I wanted but Charlotte was a fantastic teacher and helped me to bring my design to life!
Charlotte has a packed, well equipped studio and a wealth of experience which made this experience fabulous - we both made gorgeous pendants - highly recommended!
Charlotte is so experienced with working with silver and a great teacher.
Very patient. She allows time for creativity and tries really hard to make your design work. All of the techniques were explained really well to get a great result. I was really impressed and will definitely book again. 🙂
Charlotte was super friendly, she made a coffee when I arrived, we got to know each other and then I had an amazing 3 and a half hours designing pendant shapes, creating textures, cutting silver, sanding, shaping and soldering to create a lovely piece of jewelry. Would very much recommend 👌
Charlotte at The Silver Duck was a great teacher and good fun to be with. She allowed us to choose our own designs but advised us what would be achievable realistically in the time we had available. My friend and I both made completely different pendants learning lots of varied techniques. We were very happy with the end results, our pendants are beautiful and unique. Thank you Charlotte!
Really enjoyed the experience and looking forward to the next one. Would really recommend.
This was a wonderfully creative experience & Charlotte was so lovely. She made me feel relaxed & was able to guide me through the process of making my pendant in a way that even a total beginner could understand. I was super nervous that the finished product wouldn’t be great as I had no previous experience of silver making, however, my pendant is beautiful & I’ll wear it all the time. Charlotte also takes photos of the experience & emails them over so which is a nice touch. I’d highly recommend
This is a private experience and you'll have your own fully sanitised workspace. You can bring along a mask to wear if you'd like to
Your host will be Charlotte, the maker behind The Silver Duck. Charlotte will guide you through the process of making your piece. Along the way she’ll be sharing techniques, inspiration and tips but always encourages people to embrace their creative side with both their design and tools. You’ll go away with your own personal piece of silver work to keep or give as a unique, one-off gift.
