Maker's bio

Hi. My name is Jonathan Kettle. I love to teach people how to make their own silver jewellery! I run evening classes, 1:1 sessions, weekday classes and a very popular beginners class - the cake, coffee and cosy studio are important, but my main aim is for you to enjoy to the experience, and for you to leave at the end of the day with your own handmade silver jewellery piece. Some course dates are listed on this site but please contact me if you can't see a suitable one. Welcome!

Rosemary E reviewed: Silver jewellery class for beginners

"A very enjoyable day with sound teaching to an absolute novice. Very encouraging and helpful tutor who provided home-made cake (his own!) and enabled me to produce a beautiful silver bangle that I have been wearing all day - and received admiring comments."

Salt Way Silver responded:

"For an "absolute novice", you impressed me with your new silver jewellery making skills, and created some very impressive silver jewellery. It was a pleasure to help you with your chosen project. Thank you your very kind review : ) Jonathan"

Sally Price reviewed: Silver jewellery class for beginners

"I can highly recommend Jonathan’s beginners course at Salt Way Silver, my friends and I really enjoyed the session. Jonathan was very patient and explained all of the jewellery making processes very clearly. We spent time making a practice piece in copper to cover all the techniques we might need and then went on to make a piece of our choice in silver using everything we’d learned in the previous couple of hours. We were all delighted to be able to produce something we wanted to wear at the end! Crafting with friends is a great way to spend a Saturday morning!"

Salt Way Silver responded:

"Thank you Sally. It was a real pleasure to spend time helping three friends develop the skills to create some more beautiful silver jewellery. You are always welcome back! Many thanks for this kind review. Jonathan"

Heidi Worth reviewed: Silver jewellery class for beginners

"I recently completed the 8 week evening class ... wow, just wow! Jonathan is the most amazingly patient and knowledgeable tutor, and I can honestly say this course totally exceeded any prior expectations I had ♥️ I urge anyone who wants to build on any previous jewellery making experience, or just wants to do something different, or out of their comfort zone to sign up, you really won't be disappointed!! Safe to say, I will be first in the queue for an extending skills course, should one be offered in the future 😉 Thank you Jonathan, an absolute legend 😀"

Salt Way Silver responded:

"Dear Heidi, I've just been out to the shop to buy a picture frame because I might just have to frame this review! I am so very happy that you enjoyed the class and I am also pleased with the progress that you all made. Well done with your new jewellery making skills and your sense of humour. It has been a pleasure. You are always welcome back for even more jewellery making. Thanks again. Jonathan"
