Love to make jewellery but stumble at the soldering hurdle? It's a common problem.

In this intensive workshop, we strip your soldering back to basics, using simple equipment that you can easily access and use at home, using hand torches and take you through the techniques to achieve basic soldering joins to take your jewellery to the next level.

In this class we cover:
Materials, tools, what findings work for each job, measuring, planning, cutting and making.

By the end of this session, you should have a collection of your own hand made findings for various jobs ready to go.

You will learn basic soldering techniques by demonstration and then repetitive soldering practice by soldering all of your findings that you made in the previous session.

By the end of the course, you should be able to successfully make your own simple findings for most jobs and solder then together.

All of the materials are provided in the cost of the course, you just need to wear comfortable clothing and bring an apron.

Some jewellery making experience is a real help in this course- but not essential. If you book for this course and have no making experience at all- please contact us to let us know.

I am Eran Naylor and I am an Australian goldsmith and designer, originally from England. I began making jewellery about 25 years ago and simply never stopped. I was hooked and even today I find it hard to stop. I am mainly self-taught from a desire to create. I design and hand-make my collections from my workshops in Melbourne. I also teach classes at Gasworks Arts Park in Albert Park, have an online jewellery school and also teach by private tuition and Zoom.

Wax work is more my specialty and that is mainly what I teach. I love teaching, it keeps me surrounded by creative thinkers and that in itself gives back to me as much as I help others. So it’s a win-win situation that keeps the creative spirit alive!

My inspirations for my collections come first and foremost from designs and patterns from the old Mesopotamian regions, India and South America. In my late twenties, I became fascinated by Egyptology and that is where my love of adornment really flourished. I like to try to transfer the beauty of older times to bold, classic pieces that can be worn or used with ease today. I try to embody in my work the beauty and calm that adorns the wearer and has a bohemian feel and look about it, recreating feeling and senses into real pieces that can be worn like talismans every day.

Using materials, and colours and often experimenting with new techniques I try to create pieces that make the senses flow.
