About the course
Over the course of the weekend, you will learn the basic skills involved in silversmithing, including soldering, hammering and sawing. By the end of the course, you'll have crafted a beautiful and unique ring of your own design.

About the teacher
The course is held by the amazing Lauren Glen!
"I am a self-taught silversmith with a background in fashion design. With an education from Manchester School of Art, I have worked in the fashion industy for several years and eventually decided to explore the processes of silversmithing and jewellery. I focus mainly on one of a kind pieces, creating chunky, built up jewellery with a rough, heavy feel."
