Set of 3 stacking rings in New Romney, Kent
Description
Fire, metal, and creativity collide in this exciting hands-on experience where you will design and make a set of three distinctive stacking rings. Choose to work in sterling silver, warm brass, bold copper, or combine the metals to create a striking mixed-metal look. Each ring will be individually shaped, textured, and polished by you, ensuring that every piece is completely unique. With expert guidance, you will learn how to form, shape, and finish your rings using professional tools. Explore different techniques to create hammered effects, add textures, or keep your bands elegantly simple. You will also have the opportunity to melt down scrap into a molten silver adornment, giving your design a sustainable and artistic finishing touch. No experience is required, making this workshop ideal whether you are new to jewellery making or looking to build on existing skills. The small-group format ensures you receive personal attention, creating a supportive and inspiring environment where you can confidently work with fire and metal.
