Silver Pour Casting

About this event

Low tech, organic and addictive. Learn how to make a small crucible from compressed charcoal and use it to open cast sterling silver into a variety of organic materials to create pieces with a variety of exciting textures - sand, salt, chick peas, rice and even plain cold water will all give different results. You can choose to spend some time in the class creating a pair of earrings or a pendant from your castings or spend the entire class creating casts. You'll be working with casting grain in the workshop but this is an excellent technique to learn to make use of your precious metal scrap.
