Recycled Silver Wedding Ring Workshop - suitable for beginners
£360 per couple (2 rings) £205 for a single ring
Duration approx. 2-3 hours.
Before the lesson we will chat about the different shapes and sizes of rings you could make, and the options available for your hallmarked wedding rings to ensure you choose what is best for you. I have a variety of different thicknesses, sizes and styles and textures of rings made up as examples, you are welcome to come and try these on to get a better idea of your perfect ring.
During the session I will teach you how to make your rings using traditional silversmithing techniques, demonstrating each step. There is something so special about making each others wedding ring, something you will be wearing against your skin forevermore.
Workshop vouchers are valid for 1 year and must be held within 12 months from purchase date.
Please scroll down for further details.
On completion, the rings will be sent to London and hallmarked by the London Assay Office. I will professionally polish the rings before returning to you in a sustainably sourced wooden ring box. You will have the option to have a date or initials engraved on the inside of the rings, which will be done by laser engraving at the London Assay Office, at an additional cost.
As an anniversary gift I offer a free of charge annual spruce up of the rings, giving them a repolish to bring back to a high shine.
Please contact me if you would like to make your rings in gold. The price of precious metals changes every day, so gold workshops are priced at time of enquiry to make sure they are correct.
When the rings return from the Assay Office you can either arrange to collect, or I can send you to via Special Delivery. You will receive your rings in their wedding ring box, an anti-tarnish silver cleaning cloth, with a silver care card.
All materials and tools are provided.
You can check availability here if you have a particular date in mind. If you are purchasing as a gift, or as unsure as to when you would like to come, you are more than welcome to purchase the session and book a date later.
No experience is needed - I will work to your pace

At the end of the lesson you have your own handmade wedding rings to keep which you have made yourself, from scratch.
You will also have a good understand of the techniques and processes used to create silver jewellery, should you wish to build upon these.
