1 & 1/2hr Recycled Silver Ingot Charm Pendant Making

Created by melting and liquefying 925 sterling silver scrap into a mini ingot which can then be personalised with a picture stamp and initials on reverse. Finish your precious piece by threading it onto a length of coloured wax cord* to be worn around the neck, wrist or ankle. You will learn traditional silver fabrication skills of melting, plannishing, annealing, embossing, soldering, oxidising and polishing. A fun and creative hands-on experience for 10 - 15 year olds (accompanied by an adult) and up, plus suitable for all abilities with the silver material included in the price!

*Silver chains will also be available to purchase on the day at an additional cost.
