Overview
About the course
We will make jewellery using three different methods of incorporating cast resin into silver and compare that with using sheet materials. You will learn some basic jewellery making techniques and technical support will be provided to help you realise your ideas.
We will look at how internationally renowned studio jewellers use plastic in experimental ways and information will be given on sourcing materials, including more sustainable plastic options. This Jewellery Making with Plastic and Metal course is offered at the University of the Arts London (UAL).
Programme Structure
Topics covered:- You will learn to carve an original design in jewellery wax from which a simple silicone mould is made, allowing you to cast your own reproductions of the object in resin using a range of beautiful opaque and transparent colours.
- There will be plenty of time to experiment with embedding objects into the resin and to cast resin into pre-made moulds.
- Some of the projects that you will make include a ring and pendant.
- You will learn basic jewellery making techniques such as cutting, filing, soldering and polishing to make silver pieces to combine with resin, and also to create pieces from sheet acrylic.
