This hands-on course in Copenhagen focuses on the process rather than a finished product. You explore silversmithing together, with ideas often emerging as you work the metal, your tools and your materials.
You learn basic techniques such as sawing, filing and soldering, and experiment with shaping silver into personal, aesthetic and artistic pieces. There is room for both traditional craftsmanship and freer, more experimental expression. Precious and semi-precious stones and beads can also be part of the work.
Participants are welcome to bring their own materials, such as amber, sea-worn glass, inherited jewellery or an old silver spoon waiting for a new life. The course suits both beginners and those with some experience.
