In this two-day workshop you will create unique jewellery pieces in copper, exploring the potential of the electroforming technique.
About the course
The course is designed to discover the potential of the electroforming technique as it allows you to create intricate, complex three-dimensional shapes. You can produce unique, hollow and lightweight pieces which can not be done in any other technique.
Day 1
On the first day you either create a master by carving and modelling wax, or you bring along everything you would like to turn into metal like organic found objects such as twigs, leaves, seashells or plastic ready-mades. We will prepare the objects with conductive paint to get them ready for the electroforming process which will be carried out in between the two sessions.
Day 2
On the second day we creatively complete the jewellery pieces into pendants, earrings or brooches. Up to choice the pieces can be silver or gold plated after the course.
