Description
This NEW workshop explores a completely different silversmithing experience! Choose the shorter Half Day experience or go for the full Creative Day to challenge your new skills 😀 Argentium is a wonderful recycled, silver alloy, purer than sterling silver, stronger than fine silver, it has amazing creative potential. This is fusing with all the fun of organic design and all the sophistication of stunning jewellery that polishes up and will resist tarnishing, with a ready shine. This is silversmithing without the skills needed for soldering. Other dates are available, just ask for the date you would prefer and I will let you know if it is available.

FAQs
The half day experience will allow you to try out techniques demonstrated - you should complete at least 2 unique stacking rings making use of the special properties of argentium to add interest and embellishments.
I am often asked about younger children who are very creative with good dexterity.
Strength is necessary to work tools and materials. Even older teenagers lack this strength!
Time is also a factor. Schools keep lessons short and organised to ensure challenge and success.
I can create a bespoke workshop if you are still interested?
This has changed recently, we still have free parking available near the workshop but paid for parking is being introduced which is much closer. It may also indicate changes to come and my parking information may change after you have booked.
