Sand Casting Masterclass
Sand Casting Masterclass
Recycle your jewellery!
10am -5pm
In this class you will learn how to make a mould by pressing an object into a cylinder of compacted sand, which is then removed before pouring molten silver into the space created.
As a general template there will be time to perform a minimum of two casts each during the day. You can bring a small object which you would like to cast (no bigger than 2-3cm square) Or you can use an object from our collection.
You will also be taught jewellery finishing techniques such as piercing, filing, heat treating and polishing - enabling you to walk away with two finished and wearable pieces of jewellery or polished silver objects.
This class is suitable for complete beginners or those with some jewellery making experience. The class may be especially appropriate for those who would like to recycle sentimental silver or for those who wish to replicate an already existing piece of jewellery or object.
All day classes run from 10am - 5pm and are held at our studio in Walthamstow.
Making jewellery can be messy so please don't wear your best clothes! And for Health and Safety reasons please wear sturdy footwear that covers your feet - i.e. no sandles, leather boots or shoes are best.
If you need reading glasses please bring them along, as we will be working on tiny things.
