James reviewed: Full Day Silversmithing Workshop

"I have no problems recommending this course. As a complete novice the instruction was easy to follow and despite a few flaws on my part I was able to redeem the jewellery I made. Over the course of the day I measured, cut, soldered, hammered, sawed and polished the 2 pieces I made. For a complete beginner it covered a lot in a few short hours. I’ll go back in the near future to learn more skills "

Elizabeth Thomas reviewed: Make a set of stacking rings silversmithing workshop

"My daughter wanted to do a jewellery making course with her friends for her 14th birthday, and after looking around we chose this one. We had an excellent time, each making 2 stacking rings. Andrew was a great tutor and took us through the process step by step. There were plenty of tools to go around and he guided us calmly through the process. We all ended up with beautiful, professional looking rings."

"I just attended this class today and loved it. Andrew was friendly, well informed, experienced and a good tutor. We learnt, step by step, how to work a strip of silver into a gorgeous ring. Andrew took his time to work with us all and calmly over saw everything we did. We were able to use a variety of different tools and no question was too obvious to ask. I am now looking to book another course as soon as I finish this review! I would thoroughly recommend."

"I thought the course was well organised, friendly and informal. There were plenty of tools and materials to go round. Brittany explained everything very clearly, and was able to give everyone all the help they needed, as a group and individually. I picked up lots of bits of useful information, and found that there are other people apart from me that love fiddling with bits of metal! I have been looking around for a long time for local silversmithing classes, so was very pleased to have found one at last."

"I was so happy I found this course after struggling to find something suitable for so long! Brittany is a lovely teacher and was on hand to guide us all both as a group and individually, making sure we were all comfortable with each step. The tools supplied are great and we learned little tricks of the trade throughout our time there. We all came away with two beautiful stacking rings and definitely enough knowledge to repeat the process but also experiment! Brittany has since helped me get all the tools and equipment I need to do this, and regularly answers any questions I might have! Such value for money, a really great experience. Thanks Brittany!"

"I absolutely loved this course! I had been looking for a local silversmith class so was made up when I found this one. We made 2 silver stacking rings and I was so pleased with how they turned out, brittany was a fab teacher taking time to help everyone one on one aswell as the group as a whole. Everything was clearly explained so we knew how to use the tools correctly and the processes used for each step of the ring making. She has also been a great help to me since the course helping me get all my tools and accessories to carry on. I highly recommend this class!"
