Intermediate Silver Jewellery

Make a Spinner Ring and Lentil Bead

Ready to take the next step in your jewellery-making journey?

In this intermediate workshop you’ll build on your existing skills and learn how to create two beautiful pieces of jewellery:

• A spinner ring with a moving outer band
• A lentil bead formed from two domed pieces of silver

These projects introduce new techniques that bring dimension and movement into your jewellery making, while helping you build on the core skills you’ve already begun to develop.

If you’ve completed the Beginners Silver Jewellery Workshop or already have some basic experience with sawing and soldering, this is the perfect course to deepen your skills.

What You’ll Learn

In this professionally filmed, online workshop you’ll continue developing your fundamental jewellery-making skills while learning techniques that add complexity and interest to your work.

You’ll learn how to:

• Saw, drill and file your pieces with greater accuracy
• Create a wide ring band suitable for a spinner ring
• Fit and shape a thin spinning outer band
• Use doming punches to create form and dimension in metal
• Shape silver into even domes
• Create a lentil bead from two domed pieces of silver
• Solder a domed bead cleanly and securely

Along the way you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how silver behaves and how jewellers create form and movement in their designs.

The Projects

Working with Doming Tools

A key technique in this workshop is learning to use doming punches and blocks.

These tools allow you to transform flat metal into beautifully curved shapes, giving your jewellery more depth and sculptural interest.

Once you understand how to create even domes, you’ll be able to apply this skill to many other jewellery projects.

Who This Course Is For

This workshop is ideal for jewellers who:

• Have completed the Silver Jewellery Workshop
• Already know the basics of sawing, drilling, filing and soldering
• Want to develop their jewellery-making skills further
• Are ready to try slightly more advanced projects

If you’re looking for a next step that will stretch your skills while still being achievable, this course is the right one for you.
