Kestrel Boyle reviewed: 1 day traditional silver jewellery making course for beginners

"I loved my day! Heidi was a brilliant teacher and it was great fun and very interesting to do my first bit of silver work. Thank you so much, bit late with the review I know. Better late than never, I say. x Kes"

Kay Bryan reviewed: Weekly precious jewellery / Silversmithing classes

"Flux n Flame is a haven of creativity, friendship and a safe place to express yourself through jewellery making. Al and Jesa have taken me to places that I didn’t know existed in my walk to discover how deep my creativity goes. I am constantly learning and have developed a freedom of flow that I have never experienced before. They are so patient and have gently encouraged me to widen my view. The class is chilled but also a hive of activity, I love the moment in the day when suddenly you realise it’s gone quiet and everyone is in the zone. There’s no place I’d rather be than at the bench at Flux 'n Flame."

"Love this place, it’s not just a jewellery learning experience it’s a place to make new friends drink tea and eat cake oh and jump off from the world for a few hours and get some much needed head space! (therapy), plus you even get to learn how to make some awesome jewellery! I started going to flux n flame about 8/9 years ago now and it’s been the best thing I ever did, even my doctor told me to keep going for the creative therapy I most definitely needed. From the sunset drive out in the country to the peaceful settings and surroundings you won’t be disappointed. Being a newbie can be scary but you team up, someone makes you a nice hot drink and you can think of anything you want to try and create when you get there. The teachers are crazy but super awesome and in the best way. Once you have decided what you want to make and done a simple sketch if needed, you are soon delving through the types of silver you can buy to make your first project and before you know it your have a jewellery saw in hand and creating! Scared of blow torches! Well don’t be the teachers are on hand to spot you and assist you through every step of the process! Come join the new family you never knew you had or wanted! I did and now I’ve been running my own jewellery business for the last 7 years and given up my day job. But you can just take it up as a hobby if you like! Birthday and Christmas gifts will never be a chore for friends and family, they will be your next project!!!"

Jane Slowe reviewed: Weekly precious jewellery / Silversmithing classes

"Al and Jesa are brilliant and inspiring teachers and I absolutely love my time at Flux’n’ Flame (more than 5 years now). A wide range of jewellery and silversmithing techniques are taught according to the individual’s wishes, and all with fun, warmth and masses of encouragement and support. You will be able to design and create beautiful, unique jewellery from the start (I have also been making a silver box and bowls) - addictive! I highly recommend Flux ‘n’Flame."
