Silver Stacking Rings Workshop - Thursday 14th August (10.30am to approx. 2.30pm)

Design and make your own sterling silver stacking rings in a relaxed and friendly studio setting.

In this class, you’ll create three beautiful sterling silver stacking rings—completely by hand. One of your rings can include a little silver nugget embellishment (which you’ll make yourself by melting down silver wire), or you can choose to link your rings together with two small silver jump rings for a different look.

You’ll be guided through each step, learning a range of traditional silversmithing techniques including sizing, cutting, shaping, texturing, soldering, filing, polishing, and finishing. All tools and materials are included, and you’ll have your own bench and space to work-plus plenty of encouragement every step of the way.

Classes are kept small—just five people—to make sure there’s plenty of one-to-one support and time for questions.

At the end of the session, you’ll leave with three finished rings to take home and wear—or gift to someone special.

Who is it for?
This class is perfect for complete beginners—no previous experience is needed. The minimum age is 13, and anyone under 16 will need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian who’s also taking part in the class. Exceptions can sometimes be made for younger children – please get in touch with me to discuss before booking the class.

How long is the class?
The class lasts approximately 3.5 to 4 hours, including a refreshment break.
If your class runs over lunchtime, you’re very welcome to bring along a packed lunch. Or, if you’d prefer something freshly made, the Cornhill Village Shop offers delicious filled rolls, pastries and quiches—it’s a great little spot to visit before the class begins.

Please note that class times are approximate and may run slightly over or finish a little earlier, depending on the group.

What’s included?
• Tea, coffee, water & muffins (from our fabulous local shop!)
• All tools and equipment
• Enough sterling silver to make 3 rings
• A silver nugget or two silver jump rings to join your rings together

If you have any dietary needs or allergies, just let me know when booking and I’ll do my best to accommodate.
