Silver Metal Clay Jewelry Workshop

May 16, 2026 12:00 PM - 2:30 PM (EDT)

Description

In this workshop, you’ll discover the art of working with Precious Metal Clay — a unique material made of silver dust mixed with a binder, giving it a clay-like feel. You’ll be guided step-by-step as you create a beautiful pressed leaf or flower pendant. Together, we’ll roll and texture the clay, attach a bail, and then torch-fire your piece. Once fired, you’ll polish or patina your pendant, transforming it into a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry ready to wear or gift. Suitable for all levels! 

Beginner Maker

Discover the magic of metal clay in this hands-on beginner workshop! You'll start with a simple lump of metal clay and transform it into a beautiful, custom pressed leaf pendant.

You will learn:

  • Basic metal clay techniques
  • Texturing and shaping methods
  • Torch firing (no kiln needed!)
  • Patina and finishing options
  • How to polish and refine your finished piece


Experienced Maker

Take your metal clay skills to the next level in this immersive workshop designed for experienced makers. You will craft a custom pair of pressed leaf earrings or a detailed quilled pendant. This project is ideal for those with prior experience in metal clay who are ready to push their skills further.
