Learn how to create your own unique sterling silver ring under the instruction of silversmith artisan Jemica Ostrofski. You will explore techniques such as soldering, texturing and polishing, as well as sawing, drilling and forming.

Meet your tutor

This workshop is conducted by silversmith and artist Jemica Ostrofski, who draws inspiration from fashion design, costume jewellery and urban geometric form. Her goal is to create individually hand-crafted pieces that tell a story, using traditional silversmithing techniques such as hand sawing, soldering and metal texturing. Adopting an ethically responsible and environmentally friendly practice, she uses recycled, found and repurposed metals in her workshops.
