Within our programme you can develop creative ideas, make unique gifts, and learn new skills. We offer traditional goldsmithing for you to produce precious jewellery such as wedding rings, or work with the spontaneity of plastics, textile, or wood. Whether your interests are for steampunk jewellery made from found objects or a traditional craft approach, we can accommodate you.
Frances Julie Whitelaw has extensive teaching experience at college and university level and has delivered courses to full and part time students throughout the north east of England.
Our studio is equipped with an excellent range of tools and materials for general use at no extra cost. For your design inspiration we have an extensive library of jewellery and silversmithing books. Course fees include basic materials and copper. We also provide tool kits and precious metals for sale and can arrange for your work to be hallmarked.
