Description

Duration: 4-5 hours (1 day)

Pre-Requisites: A ring workshop or previous industry experience. 18+

Suitable for: Hobbyist, Intermediate Goldsmith

Materials Included: Brass needed to make models for practice when required along with all the tools and equipment needed to create your project.

Additional Materials: Sterling Silver; Approximately $50-$150, but could be higher or lower, depending on the projects chosen.

Description:
Always fidgeting with something? Add an interactive fun factor to your ring by making it spin!

Combine several rings into one masterpiece that moves as you do.

In this workshop students use their basic skills from Ring 1 and 2 to make the ultimate ring. Using several strips of sterling silver students are guided by our in-house goldsmith through the process of making a fully functioning and fun spinner ring that you’ll be so proud to show off. Sterling silver is a white metal that is easy to work with and a great medium to begin your explorations into working with fine metal. Silver is very conductive, which means it transfers heat very easily. It is so fun finding out what the benefits and challenges associated with every kind of metal are!

Choose your basic ring dimensions, finish to polish or texture or choose from a selection of amazing patterns. At the end of this session you will have completed and gained the knowledge for an advanced fine metal project that you’ll be spinning for years to come.

You’ll gain the confidence of applying what you’ve already learned at the Den and successfully use it to make a moving piece of wearable art. You’ll surprise yourself at how much you’ll remember and be able to keep growing on your creative path.

We encourage you to pick up some tools and let us show you how to make a lasting piece of art you can be proud of.

Basic skills Learned:
Basic Fold A to B fabrication, proper hand tool usage, basic terms associated with goldsmithing, measuring, sawing piece to desired ring size, using a torch to soften the metal and solder the seam shut, forming into ring shape, filing and cleanup of the ring descending grits of emery paper, basic surface texturing using a polished hammer(optional), polishing using the lathe, application of a matte or oxidized finish.

*Sterling Silver Materials up to 2.5g included

Attire: Please bring the following: hair tie, glasses (contacts not allowed), closed toed shoes.

As artists we like to share our art with the world. These D.I.Y. workshops allow local, talented jewellers to share their passion to design and create works of art with you.
