Jewellery Enamelling

Maker and educater Sara Barker has run her own studio for over 30 years. In this wonderful workshop she will teach you all about jewellery enamelling. Enamel is powdered glass which fuses to metal when heated in a high temperature kiln, producing a rich and glossy surface.

You will be guided through each stage of this lovely process, trying two application techniques of applying dry or wet enamel to copper test pieces, preparing you to make quality, wearable items.

There will be time to experiment , explore and learn how the different enamel powders behave when layerd and fired together. You can try out elements of surface design via pattern making and colour combinations.

After the testing process, you will be able to make your final design with confidence and finish them with sterling silver hoops or hooks.
