Silversmithing Workshop
Design and create your own handcrafted sterling silver linked bracelet in this hands-on, skill-building short course.
Discover the satisfaction of forming and connecting individual links to create a beautiful, wearable chain. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to construct a sterling silver bracelet from scratch — shaping, soldering and assembling each component by hand. Held in a relaxed and supportive environment, this course is ideal for those wanting to strengthen their soldering skills and explore articulated jewellery design.
Across two sessions, you’ll experience the full making process — from forming consistent silver links to constructing and finishing a completed bracelet.
In this workshop, you’ll learn:
• How to measure and plan a bracelet to suit your wrist
• Forming consistent links using sterling silver wire
• Cutting, shaping and preparing links for soldering
• Using easy, medium and hard solder in a multi-stage project
• Assembling and aligning links into a flexible chain
• Constructing and attaching a functional clasp
• Filing, sanding and polishing to achieve a professional finish
In the first session, you’ll focus on forming and soldering your links. In the second session, you’ll assemble your bracelet, create or attach a clasp, and refine and polish your finished piece.
With guidance from our experienced facilitator, you’ll develop confidence in precision soldering and chain construction techniques while creating a bracelet that reflects your personal style.
You’ll also receive helpful notes and a supplier list so you can continue exploring chain-making techniques beyond the course.
• Includes: Sterling silver (up to 11g), solder (easy, medium and hard), and all tools and safety equipment (safety glasses and apron provided).
Whether you're looking to refine your soldering skills, explore linked construction, or create a timeless sterling silver bracelet, this workshop will leave you inspired — and wearing a piece you made link by link.
