Make an adjustable sterling silver ring

Adjustable Sterling Silver Ring - Reticulation

No experience neccesary - Suitable for total beginners :)

This is the perfect workshop if you're intrigued by jewellery making.

The process:

During this 3 hour workshop, you will learn how to make an adjustable chunky sterling silver ring, creating texture by using the reticulation method.

To start with, you will explore and practice sawing techniques on copper, you will then transfer these skills over to your sterling silver ring band.

Once you have designed the shape of your ring band, you will learn how to anneal the metal and add the organic texture through the use of flame. This is called reticulation.

All materials and tools will be provided. At the end of the day, you will take home your very own handcrafted one-of-a-kind ring – as well as a cotton pouch to keep it safe.

Reticulation is a technique which enables us to create beautiful ripples and ridges on the surface of the metal, by carefully controlling heat using a blow torch. I like to think of it as painting with a flame.
