About this event

Join us at Studio Surf in Marion Bay for a fun silver jewellery workshop creating a sterling silver bezel set ring, pendant or earrings.

In this silver workshop you will be going home with a unique piece of wearable art that you have hand crafted yourself. What could be more awesome?!

In the morning part of the session you will create a sterling silver ring band using basic silver smithing techniques.

After lunch, you will learn more advanced silver-smithing techniques to set a piece of sea glass, beach pebble, shell or cabochon into a hand shaped sterling silver bezel.  Your silver setting can then be added to your ring or turned into a pendant or earrings before completing the final set and polish.  

Silversmithing techniques learnt in this session include hand sawing, forming, soldering, bezel setting, burnishing and polishing.

All materials are provided, including silver and worksheet.  A selection of sea glass, pebbles and shells will be available for you to choose from, or bring your own special piece to set.

Lunch is provided. Please advise dietary requirements.

Please tie long hair back, wear closed shoes and bring your reading glasses if you need them.

Organised by

Hi, I'm Jasmine, co-owner of Studio Surf art gallery in Marion Bay, Yorke Peninsula.

Silversmith, art teacher, conservationist, traveller and mother of two. I love to make jewellery, art and create things with my hands. 

As an artisan jeweller I predominantly work with sterling silver and sea glass to create unique, ethical and sustainable jewellery. All my silver is recycled and the repurposing of beach glass promotes marine conservation, which I am passionate about. I use a wide range of methods, and am constantly learning new techniques.  

As a regional art facilitator and teacher, I love to share my skills and passion for art. I host after-school, holiday and regular art programs for children, adults, community and NDIS participants with the aim of bringing a variety of quality arts experiences to our regional participants. I work across all mediums and develop programs to suit a variety of people. My long term programs are developed in conjunction with participants to ensure maximum engagement and benefit. From pottery, printmaking, painting and drawing to performing arts, costume design and textiles, the only limit is our combined imaginations.

Sharing my skills with others is something I love even more than creating on my own. It is truly something special to be able to help inspire and assist others to expand their imagination and create something fabulous.
