Maker's bio

Hello, my name is Clare and I am pleased to offer workshops and classes in my studio. I offer a range of courses, from short taster sessions, half or full day workshops and 6 week courses. Here at Halton Village Silver Studio we work in silver and copper, using both traditional and modern metalsmith techniques, and enjoy using enamel to add colour. My workshops include a range of Jewellery making but I also enjoy teaching other metal smith sessions including making metal plant labels, spoons and bowls, as well as creating metal flowers. My studio has all the equipment you need to create some lovely pieces to take home, and each session includes all of the materials you will need.

Michelle S reviewed: Silver Clay - Beginners Jewellery Workshop

"Had a fabulous day with Claire yesterday on the beginners silver clay course.... Lots of fun and Claire is super knowledgeable....I walked away very happy with the piece I made and confident I could do this technique at home. Claire also has a lovely display of jewellery for sale that she has made herself. I treated myself to a very lovely silver and seaglass pendant......I'll definitely be back to learn more things. Highly recommend 😊"

Halton Village Silver responded:

"Thank you, glad you enjoyed the day. Look forward to seeing you again soon. "
