Sea Glass & Pottery has been naturally tumbled in the ebbs and flows of the sea waves before being wash upon the shoreline for a lucky beachcomber with a keen eye to collect these timeless treasures.

This workshop will have you combing through a beautiful selection of British sea glass to find your perfect match, learning to fabricate a bezel from silver, form and solder a ring to your size, and finishing off the session by learning to bezel set your sea glass. Just as every piece of sea glass is unique, each ring made will be one of a kind…

I can't thank Arden enough for the class. I had never done silver work before, but she explained everything perfectly. Now I have a beautiful ring, which i made myself! I have already signed up for another class.

KJ - 4 February 2024

The workshop was great and I came away with a gorgeous ring. Arden is a great teacher and is so patient which ensures you leave with a piece of jewellery you are so proud of. I’m looking forward to doing more workshops.
