NEW FOR 2025! We are extremely excited to be inviting Tess Quail of Lake District Jewellery to the Makers Mill for 2025 to deliver some exciting Jewellery Making classes for us!!

Tessa will start the lesson by talking a little bit about working with silver, the stages of making a pendant and the different techniques you will be using to create a pendant. 

Tessa will then guide you through the process of developing your own design and choose a stone or 2 that you would like to include in your piece of jewellery. You do not have to include a gemstone.

Then, onto the making! You will be using a saw blade to cut out the shape we require and then using tools provided you will file your pendant to take out uneven or sharp edges. You will then move on to adding detail texture to your pendant before soldering pieces or settings onto our pendants. 

To finish, you then be using emery boards to take out any scratches from the silver before we set our stones. You will then be set a round stone onto your pendants using different tools, all guided by Tessa. 

Once we have completed all these stages we will do a final polish a choose a chain ready to wear. 

Please note there is a £30 material cost payable to the tutor on the day, this includes all silver, gem stones and chain.

Included in the cost of your workshop is lunch, afternoon cake and tea and coffee for the duration of the class.
