Craft Workshop – pewter cast jewellery

10:30 – 12:30 (morning session)

13:30 – 15:30 (afternoon session)

£46.50/session

You are welcome to book one session (2 hours) or make another booking for the afternoon session to extend your time in the workshop and create either more items or more intricate designs.

Pewter casting is an ancient technique, used long ago by the Romans. It is very low tech and wonderful items of jewellery with a professional finish can be produced in a few hours. Mandy will show you how to design and carve into plaster – creating moulds into which lead-free pewter is poured. The molten pewter cools very quickly, enabling you to finish your jewellery items to create earrings, brooches, keyrings or fridge magnets.

No prior experience in pewter casting is needed and all materials will be provided on the day. Suitable for all ages over 16 years.

Advance booking is essential.   Visit our workshop page to see what other craft activities we have available. We also run Craft Parties for children and adults. Also gift vouchers available for workshops/purchases in the gallery.
