Q2: What types of wedding rings can I create?

The design of your rings is entirely up to you. You will have a consultation prior to the workshop to arrange what metals you will be using and a rough idea of design. This can include traditional bands, contemporary designs, and even custom engravings/textures. You don’t have to have the final design locked in before your workshop, you can decide on the day how you would like your ring to look.

Q3: How long does the workshop typically take?

The duration can vary depending on the complexity of the design and the materials used. Generally, workshops can take anywhere from 2.5 to 4 hours. This will be arranged during your consultation.

Q4: Can we customise the rings with engravings or specific designs?

Absolutely! Many workshops offer customisation options, allowing you to add engravings, patterns, or even incorporate gemstones.

The workshop will provide all the necessary tools, materials, and guidance needed to create your rings. This typically includes metals, soldering equipment, polishing tools, and expert assistance from the jewellers.

Yes, you are permitted to bring something to drink. A small glass of something can be a nice way to relax into the workshop but we do not advise you drink more than that. We will provide light , non alcoholic refreshments and snacks to suit your dietary requirements.

Q7: Can I bring my own materials or stones?

In some cases you might be allowed to bring your own materials or stones, but it's best to confirm during your consultation. Re-working exisitng materials will come at an extra cost.

Q8: Do we get to keep the silver rings we make?

Absolutely! All the rings you create during the workshop are yours to keep. They will serve as a cherished reminder of the effort and love you put into crafting them together!
