Make Beautiful Silver Jewellery with a Professional Designer and Teacher

Transform your weekend into a creative retreat! Under the guidance of professional jewellery designer and qualified teacher Jude de Berker, you'll rapidly learn to create stunning pieces of silver jewellery in just two days.

This Weekend Retreat covers the same syllabus as the evening course, condensed into an immersive experience. Perfect for those starting a new hobby—or even considering a career in jewellery-making—this course focuses on techniques that can easily be replicated at home with minimal equipment.

Create 3–4 Unique Pieces of Jewellery with Customisable Projects

During the course, you'll craft set projects designed to teach you core jewellery-making techniques. However, each project allows for personal tweaks to match your style and creativity.

Course Highlights:

  • Learn in a friendly, supportive group of like-minded locals.
  • Create 3-4 unique jewellery pieces to take home.
  • Master key beginner techniques, including:
    • Sawing & cutting metal.
    • Filing & shaping.
    • Adding texture using hammers.
    • Soldering (paste & pallion methods).
