If you wish to pay in instalments, that is absolutely fine; please do get in touch! It’s tough out there!

A mini course designed to help people build on their skills. This consists of 3 taught sessions and 2 catchup sessions; it will stretch over 5 weeks. Over the course of the weeks, we will be focusing on piercing - cutting out a pattern/design from a piece of copper sheet, that will be mounted into a little wooden block so that it can stand up as an ornamental piece, perhaps to be kept in front of a window, allowing it to cast shadows. Almost like a glassless, stained glass window!

Week one will start with our piercing in copper. Week two is optional - this can be used as a chance to continue your piercing. In week three, we will start to tidy up our piercing, with the use of saws and files. Week four is also optional; in this session, we can continue the filing and sanding. Week five will be the final week; this will see us finishing the pieces, trying a little patina, and mounting in the wood blocks.

Only one of these will be taking place this year. The dates are as follows:

Thursday 17th April,Thursday 24th April*, Thursday 1st May, Thursday 8th May*, Thursday 15th May.

This session will run from 6-9pm each evening.

*The dates in italics are the optional/jewellery club dates. Those in bold are the compulsory dates.

If you wish to improve on existing skills, this is an ideal workshop; practise makes perfect!

Materials will be included. This course will take place in the evenings from 6-9pm at the Colour Factory in Winchester.

(Weeks Two and Four are essentially Jewellery Club; folks on the course will get first choice, but if the spaces aren’t filled, it will be offered to the wider Jewellery Club community.)

Please get in touch if you have any questions.
