This isn’t a quick taster where you rush through a piece and leave. Over 5 weeks, you’ll build real silversmithing skills step by step, with the time and guidance to gain confidence at the bench.

During the course, you’ll be introduced to core silversmithing techniques including:
- Sawing and shaping metal

You’ll leave not just with finished pieces, but with the skills to continue making.
