6 Week Beginners Jewellery Course, Sept-Oct
Description
Beginners Level 1 Jewellery-Making Class This six-week course will introduce you to the foundational skills of jewellery making and silversmithing, where you will learn the basics of jewellery making in three hour weekly classes. This course caters for the complete novice who is completely new to the industry and ready to begin their jewellery journey. In this class, you will learn about the basic material quality of metal and the tools required for jewellery making, as well as being shown how to use them in a safe and proper manner. You’ll be briefed on the techniques that are needed to get you through the beginnings of jewellery making including sawing, shaping and doming, alongside embossing, soldering and chain-making. Here at the School we are experienced enough to understand that learning to make jewellery is a skill that needs building. With careful tuition and one-to-one attention throughout the classes, each student gets to learn and practice specific techniques in each of our block of courses rather than cramming everything in to a few days. The block is split into two, with the first three weeks spent learning introductory jewellery techniques followed by the final three weeks in which you will be supported in making your own piece of jewellery or small collection!
