SILVER ALCHEMY: JEWELRY FROM PRECIOUS METAL CLAY
A rare opportunity to experience one of the most fascinating materials in modern jewelry making.
In this hands-on beginner workshop, you’ll create your own custom jewelry from silver clay—a remarkable material made from microscopic particles of pure silver suspended in an organic binder. It looks and feels like clay while you work with it, allowing you to shape, texture, and personalize your design.
Then the magic begins!
After your piece dries, you’ll torch-fire it under instructor guidance, burning away the binder and revealing what remains: solid fine silver. What started as something soft and moldable is transformed into precious metal right before your eyes.
But the real surprise comes next!
As you sand, brush, burnish, and polish your piece, the silver begins to emerge from beneath the surface. This is the moment that never gets old. Students often find themselves smiling in disbelief as they realize they’ve created a genuine piece of fine silver jewelry with their own hands.
By the end of class, you’ll leave wearing a beautiful finished piece and a new understanding of a process that feels equal parts art, science, and alchemy.
All tools and materials are included. No experience required.
