Beginners silversmithing class Come along and make a sterling silver pendant necklace with a bezel set gemstone or sea glass. During the class, you will learn how to pierce, form, polish and solder metal. You can choose from our available genuine gemstones or sea glass collection on the day. If you'd like, bring along some of your own pieces and we can see if they're suitable. We will have our collection available which has either been selected for its shape or altered to suit the setting type. We finish up the class by setting your stone in your handmade setting and polishing it to a high shine. All materials, and refreshments are included!
