What you'll do

In a 2.5 hour workshop, you will be introduced to the traditional art of silversmithing. A number of essential basic skills will be covered, including measuring and sizing rings (or bangles), manipulation of metal, annealing, soldering and polishing.

You will be guided through the process of creating jewellery of your choice. You can choose to make a rolling ring, (consisting of three interlocking rings made in sterling silver), a spinner ring, a set of four stacking rings or three stacking bangles.

No previous experience is necessary. The class however is limited to people aged 16 years and above.

To allow for individual attention, classes will be capped at four participants.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.

I have been making jewellery for close to 30 years. I have spent many years teaching in schools, and love nothing more than sharing my knowledge with others.

My journey with metal began when I enrolled in a Bachelor of Education in Visual Arts in Melbourne, majoring in metalwork. Back then I loved working with copper and used to create large scale sculptural pieces.

A sculpture studio however, was not a practical option when I discovered my love of travel. So, I started working on a much smaller scale, swapping sculpture for jewellery. My jewellery tools all fit into a decent sized case that I took everywhere!

After 11 years abroad, I found myself back in Australia with a couple of children in tow. After too many years of cold weather, Brisbane was the perfect place to call home. I now love nothing more than being in my studio, creating.
