Workshops
You never go out without earrings, and you’d like to think that you’ve created them yourself by learning to work with silver?
In this 4-hour workshop, professional jeweler Louison will help you make your own 925 sterling silver hoop earrings.
After an introduction to the raw material, silver wire, and tools such as the bocfil (saw) and foredom, we’ll cover the safety aspects of using these tools and the flashlight. Then it’s time to get hands-on, and you can expect to do the following :
- – Select loop size, wire size and cut wire.
- – Coarse shaping on the triboulet and soldering.
- – Shape round with hammer and polish.
- – Cut out space and solder earring stem.
- – Finish polishing with the oxidation option.
You’ll leave with a pair of creole earrings, each 2.5 to 4 cm in diameter, to hang in your ears or those of a loved one.
Skills required: none. This workshop is open to anyone interested in discovering the world of silver jewelry.
The price includes silver, tools and precious tips like jewelry!
