Day Long Silversmithing Experience in Newcastle

Description

Love jewellery and fancy making your own? This beginner-friendly workshop is the perfect way to spend a creative day exploring traditional jewellery-making. You’ll enjoy a full day of hands-on learning and leave with your own shiny creations to treasure. It’s a great option if you’d like to try jewellery making but can’t commit to the four-week course. Please note, there is a small materials fee of approximately £5–£25 for silver, payable on the day (depending on current silver prices and the amount you use).
