Description

Knotted Wire Ring Workshop
Level: Beginners
Discover how simple wire techniques can be transformed into an elegant, sculptural ring in this beginner-friendly one-day jewellery workshop. Using round wire and traditional hand tools, you’ll explore forming, soldering and finishing while creating a distinctive knotted ring design.
This course focuses on building solid foundations in jewellery making, with plenty of time for careful working and individual support. The knotted centre creates visual interest without requiring complex construction, making it an ideal introduction to wirework and soldering.
By the end of the day, you’ll leave with a completed ring and a clear understanding of the processes involved — as well as the confidence to develop the idea further in your own work.
What you’ll cover
  • Measuring and preparing wire
  • Forming controlled curves and balanced shapes
  • Introduction to soldering and heat control
  • Shaping and sizing a ring on a mandrel
  • Filing, refining and finishing for a clean result

What to bring:

  • All tools and materials are provided

  • Please bring glasses if you need them for close work

  • Wear suitable studio clothing and closed-toe footwear

  • Long hair should be tied back

  • Optional: a CSSJ apron to feel right at home in the workshop

If you enjoy preparing in advance, we’ve put together a Pinterest page full of jewellery-making inspiration and helpful background information.

Tea, coffee, and biscuits are provided. We do not have a dedicated lunch area, but you are welcome to bring your own lunch to eat at your desk, or we’re happy to recommend nearby places to eat.
