Pewter jewellery making workshop - MANCHESTER

  • Manchester Craft and Design Centre 17 Oak Street Manchester, England, M4 5JD United Kingdom (map)

Join Ella, a full time pewtersmith established in 2012, at Manchester Craft and Design Centre for a 3 hour pewter jewellery making workshop.

Under the expert guidance of Ella you’ll create your own design using pattern, texture &traditional jewellery making skills and experience the tactile experience of working with pewter

. We will use textures and foraged dried leaves or petals (green fresh leaves don't work) to print on the pewter using a traditional metalwork tool called a rolling mill.

We will then use hammers and piercing tools to shape your jewellery (approx 3 made per workshop) before polishing so you can proudly wear them home. A fun workshop with the joy of seeing your designs take shape.

Suitable for beginners or those with previous silver or jewellery experience.
