Description

Create a personalized sterling silver ring in our brand new studios on Georges street, in this interactive forging workshop in Dublin. Try your hand at various forging techniques with your expert tutor, and take home your own creation as a memorable souvenir. Start by marking your silver to the length you require by choosing which finger you would like it on. Then, use a handsaw to cut it to size. Learn how to form the ring using a mallet to shape it into the ring mandrel. Watch as it is soldered by an expert tutor who will guide you throughout. Then, you'll learn to file it by using different hand files. Individualize your ring, deciding what curve you would like it to have. This can make a great difference to the end result. Next, choose from three very different textures. Use your creativity with the planishing hammer to achieve the texture you require. Finally, select your polish to finish off your ring and take home the ultimate souvenir for remembering your trip to Ireland.

Unfortunately, we have a lot of steep stairs in our buildings, so both of our studios are not suitable for people with impaired mobility. Please leave plenty of time to get to us 10 minutes before your class start time. We cannot accept late attendees beyond 10 minutes after the class has started. If coming from the airport please make sure you leave extra time to reach us as we cannot offer transfers for late flights.
