Bezels in Silver Clay Workshop
About the event
Silver clay is a product developed in Japan to recycle silver particles. It looks like clay, and burns away to leave fine silver in a magical, easy process. Over the 2-3hr workshop you can create a piece of jewellery such as earrings or a pendant with silver clay and then learn how to set zirconium using bezels to finish the piece.
The workshop will cover the basis of using silver clay- designing a piece, using textures, shaping and preparing for firing, to using a blowtorch and finishing each to a wearable jewellery item. Use zirconium stones for this process.
