Explore the unique properties of 999 silver clay and vibrant, heat-resistant stones in this immersive ring-making workshop led by multidisciplinary artist Shirley Wu. Designed for complete beginners, this hands-on session will guide you through the process of shaping, texturing and refining silver clay to create your own ring, hand-set with a selection of provided stones such as cubic zirconia, synthetic ruby and spinel.
Once your ring is dried and sanded, it will be kiln-fired on-site for approximately one hour, during which you can enjoy a break (tea and snacks will be available; you may wish to browse JamFactory’s shop and gallery or explore Seppeltsfield Estate) before returning to brush and polish your piece. Witness the remarkable transformation from clay into fine silver, ready to wear.
