Level: Beginners
Join us in a relaxed and friendly workshop where you will learn traditional silversmithing skills and create a stunning patterned brass candle holder in your own design. The term silversmith is often dropped into conversations about jewellery, but the two terms are not interchangeable. Typically, a silversmith will aim to create larger-scale work for functional and/or decorative purposes – for example, tableware, flatware, ecclesiastical pieces or functional vessels, while a jeweller makes work to be worn on the body. While we do not have the equipment for large-scale silversmithing here at the School, we can create smaller functional items such as spoons, quaichs, pillboxes…and candle holders! This course is a fantastic, festive opportunity to use our rolling mill, hammers and punches to create texture and pattern on heavy sheet brass before soldering a matching brass sleeve to hold a tapered candle. We’ll teach you how to file, buff and polish your candle holder for a professional quality finish.
Techniques covered:
Patterning & texturing brass
Soldering & sawing
Polishing & finishing
