Make a simple pair of enamelled drop earrings or a pendant in silver.

Following a short demonstration of basic enamelling techniques, you will experiment with colours and designs to gain confidence with the technique. Then you will decide on your own design to create either earrings or a pendant. You will be provided with a small disc of silver (approximately 12mm), which can then be made into a pair of earrings or a drop pendant that can be attached to a chain. You will make and enamel the jewellery.

Your tutor will solder the ear posts or attach jump rings to complete your enamelled piece/s of jewellery.

At the end of the course, you will go home with a finished item of silver enamelled jewellery to wear.
