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.

Yvonne reviewed: Sea Glass Drilled Jewellery Workshop

"I booked the seaglass jewellery workshop on a whim- something nice for me and my daughter to do together. We had a wonderful time. Clare was great at explaining everything and made us feel very welcome. Couldn't believe how fast the two hours went. It was ling enough for us to be able to make our own necklace and to give us the confidence to continue experimenting at home.I'm so excited to have a new interest and look forward to continue learning more.

Donna reviewed: Chunky Textured Silver Ring Workshop

"I really enjoyed this course and never done anything like this before. Clare was really friendly, knowledgeable and skilled. I was fortunate to have a one on one with her. I learned so much about jewellery making generally while making my own beautiful chunky silver ring ‘for me by me’. Love it. I’ll be signing up for another with Clare soon. "

Halton Village Silver responded:

"Thank you for the lovely words, it was an absolute pleasure to have you in the studio. Happy birthday BTW! "
