Silver Clay Pendant Workshop

Ever wanted to make your own silver jewelry but thought it was too technical?
This beginner-friendly class introduces you to Silver Clay. A playful medium that feels like clay but fires into solid silver. Over the course of the workshop, you’ll create two pendants, add gemstones, fire them in our studio kiln, and finish them with professional cleaning and oxidation techniques.

Perfect for a date night activity or just a fun way to spend an evening making something beautiful and wearable. Warning: it’s very fun and slightly addictive.

We provide all materials, tools, and PPE.
