The Jewellery Makers

My husband bought this Jewllrey making course as a birthday present. I would highly recommend giving it a go - I was a complete beginner but somehow with lots of help and guidance from Emma and the team I managed to make a ring. Sandcasting and working with silver was addictive I loved it! I will be doing more I’m sure. My husband was impressed! Thank you to all of you for making me feel so welcome & for being so encouraging- You have a fabulous place & a great community !

Attended a jewellery making session at the Emma White Jewellery studio with my daughter. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. We paid for a private four-hour session - the dates of the scheduled workshops didn't work for us but Emma and Rachel were so accommodating and put together a tailored workshop to suit us. We managed to make a ring stack each as well as an extra one. Rachel, who led our session, was amazing. The studio has a lovely community feel to it and is in a fabulous setting. Will definitely be returning in the future.

Emma delivered a fantastic wax carving and casting stones in place course. I learned so much in a super friendly environment. I can really recommend The Jewellery Makers and I will be going back to do more learning with them 😊

I do not know where to start... Emma and The Dream Team are amazing! I have started coming to the jewellery making classes nearly 32 months ago (nearly 3 years) and would not look back. I watched BBC programme 'All that Glitters,' where Emma was one of the finalists, and that got me hooked on the idea of trying jewellery making. You can start learning how to make a bangle or a ring, and all tutors will guide you through the process, supporting you well. You can progress to making more jewellery, learn how to do stone setting (there are various ways to do that), do some metal forming (we've recently learnt how to make flowers), make spinning rings/bangles, and do all sorts of silversmithing, casting, wax carving, and making jewellery out of silver clay. I even made a wedding band from scratch. Emma and Tutors are a great team and this is partly what makes me feel welcome:-) I feel like I belong to this amazing jewellery making community. I've learnt so much thanks to Emma, and all Tutors (apologies for not mentioning the name, but you know you are All wonderful) and fellow jewellers, we've had some good laughs and some frustrating times when nothing was working the way I've expected.:-) And this past term I've been working on some pendants for my Mum and my sister (her wedding gift) , as well as trying to make some flowers (still work in progress), see attached photos. I would like to encourage you to have a go and try (if you're not sure try a weekend workshop). The classes are not prescriptive and there's an optional project every term but you can work on your own. It's enjoyable, sometimes feels bonkers when you play with the sand (for sand casting), and therapeutic in a mindful way. Basically, I think I started out of curiosity and ended up finding something precious...

A beautiful bespoke ring and a lovely experience. It was a treat having Emma make my stunning ring, crafted from my husbands signet ring and an emerald that we bought on holiday in India. Emma kept me involved in the process checking that I was happy with the sizing and design throughout, respecting my thoughts and style but also encouraging me to be daring and a bit of sparkle, I absolutely love it!
