The Golden Touch - Make Silver Clay Jewellery with 24ct Gold Accents
Description
Come and join us for this amazing experience where you will design and make your own pendant or earrings from recycled silver clay and learn how to incorporate touches of real 24ct gold. Introducing the art of Keum Boo, our workshop will guide you through the techniques used in this ancient Korean art to add accents of real gold to your jewellery. This workshop is ideal for the beginner or anyone wishing to further develop their silver clay jewellery making skills. In this workshop you will begin by learning the fundamentals of working with silver clay and how to set up your workstation and prepare you tools and your project. From there, you will learn how to handle, texture, cut, shape and condition your silver clay. Next you will refine your silver clay ready for firing and at this stage you will be shown how to drill your piece for attaching your chain and bail. And then, once fired, you will be shown how to polish and detail your jewellery. Now you will be guided through the amazing process of Keum Boo where you will be adding beautiful 24ct gold to your newly made silver jewellery.
