Botanical Jewellery Making with Lily Willow £55
Botanical Jewellery Making In brass & copper
£10 booking fee and link to pay on booking
In this workshop we will explore different silver smithing techniques to create a unique pair of earrings or pendant.
We begin the class by studying real leaves or flowers to design a piece of jewellery. There will also be templates for you to choose from should you wish to.
We will then learn how to saw out the shape of your chosen design using a jewellers saw.
Once we have cut out or designs, we can play with different texturing techniques to add character and detail to the pieces.
To finish our pieces, we will learn how to file, sand and either make earring wires or a bail for pendants (with the option of simple soldering).
The final stage is to polish your piece.
