Create a beautiful fine silver ring that's completely your own. Winner of the 2025 Adelaide Fringe Best Workshops & Talks Award, this beginner-friendly jewellery experience invites you to shape silverclay by hand, choose colourful gemstones, and create a ring that's uniquely yours.
One of everyone's favourite moments is watching the silverclay piece transform into 99.9% pure fine silver ring. It's a magical moment that never gets old, even after welcoming more than 1, 000 participants to my workshops.
Your workshop includes professional kiln-firing and polishing on site. Depending on the firing schedule, your finished ring will be beautifully presented in a jewellery box and ready to collect approximately 2 hours after the workshop or the following day.
Join me in my natural light-filled jewellery studio in Adelaide CBD, designed especially for small, hands-on workshops, or choose my relaxed McLaren Vale location surrounded by wine country.
Whether you're coming with a friend, planning a date, celebrating a birthday or simply trying something creative for yourself, you'll leave with a one-of-a-kind ring and memories to treasure.
Why join a workshop?
Unlike making at home, you'll have an experienced jeweller by your side to guide you through every step, answer questions, and help fix any mistakes along the way. Your ring will also be professionally kiln-fired and finished, giving you the best chance of creating a beautiful, durable piece you'll be proud to wear every day.
