Sterling Silver Spinner Ring - Saturday Metalsmithing Workshop

Saturday, November 21st from 2:00PM-8:00PM

Create a sterling silver spinner ring completely by hand. Hammer, texture, shape, solder, and finish a wide sterling band, then add free-moving spinner bands to make it entirely your own. Fire. Silver. Hammer. Spin. No experience needed.

Workshop cost does not include materials. The materials kit fee is $65, includes everything needed to complete the standard project, and is available to purchase from the instructor via Venmo.

6-hour Workshop Cost - Non-members: $125 / Members: $100

NOTE: Eventbrite charges non-refundable processing fees for online payments and now displays these fees in the total ticket price shown on this event listing.

Six hours gives us enough time to settle into the studio, learn the techniques, make the work, and finish our pieces without racing the clock. We’ll take a snack break partway through class. Students are encouraged to bring their own snacks and drinks. Metalsmithing is surprisingly hungry work.

For safety, students must wear closed-toed shoes and clothing appropriate for working in a metals studio. Long hair must be able to be pulled back and secured. We’ll be working with torches, hot metal, hammers, chemicals, and equipment, so this is not the afternoon for flowing sleeves and Rapunzel cosplay.

Want more silver? Another stone? Extra wire? Decided one bangle is simply not enough bangles? Additional materials will be available for purchase directly from the instructor via Venmo.

About the instructor: Laura Jamison of LJ Studios Metalsmith is an instructor from New Hampshire. Her workshops are designed to be approachable for beginners while teaching real metalsmithing skills. She says, "We’re going to saw it, hammer it, solder it, forge it, set it, and occasionally swear at it. Then we’re going to make something beautiful."
