You will design and make a silver ring employing specialist techniques to design and make your jewellery, and you will be taught how to include a stone in your design and piece.
Our experienced tutor will teach you how to transform silver into a ring, which will be yours to keep. You will gain knowledge of designing, forming and finishing your ring using a variety of silversmithing methods and hand tools.
The course is suitable for beginners with no prior jewellery-making experience, or for those with some knowledge who’d like to refresh and extend their skills.
Your tutor for this course is Chamine Ghuss. Chamine has a First Class Honours degree in 3D Design & Crafts from the University of Brighton, as well as a teaching degree from the University of Bedfordshire. She has completed her first year on the Bishopsland post-graduate programme and is currently in her second year as one of two Artists in Residence. She has specialised in metalsmithing, polymers and composites.
The course are limited to a maximum of 6 attendees, so you will have expert tuition and we can adapt the teaching to suit your level of skill and desired outcome.
You can do this course as a stand alone or book multiple short courses to build up a bank of jewellery and metal smithing skills.
£95 per person, all the tools, materials and teaching needed to produce your ring will be provided. The course takes place on Saturday 20 September, 10am-4pm at the Bishopsland Educational Trust, Hills Yard, Buscot, Faringdon SN7 8BY.
