During this day-long experience you’ll create a bangle design, before using a hammer to move your silver and make a beautiful and unique bangle.

In this workshop you will use hammers to move or texture your silver to create a unique silver bangle. You can create tapers and splays or focus on texture and form through the use of hammers and stamps. The bangle can be soldered shut or left open for an adjustable cuff. Charlotte is an experienced and creative silversmith and jewellery maker and will take you through each part of the process step by step. You’ll not only go away with your own personal bangle but also the experience of using the tools and techniques used by silversmiths.

Designing and making beautiful cutlery from sterling silver and locally sourced English Holly, Charlotte creates functional pieces of art for the kitchen.

Her ethos revolves around simple, elegant designs that are ergonomic and tactile. With the intention of provoking people to appreciate their food and take time over their daily routines and rituals in the kitchen.

Preserving and capturing the natural qualities of the materials used. Charlotte creates magical utensils with a rugged, native feel to them. Her pieces are designed to function, with appreciation towards the natural beauty and proportion between the materials. Immersing herself in the creative process: a wonderful journey from beginning to end, gathering and foraging for branches that fit the designs by jumping through hedgerows and stomping around woods.

The cutlery is made from sterling silver for its robust qualities. Holly is a hard, durable wood, coupling beautifully with the silver. The wood is treated with a food safe wax to help protect against staining. Using traditional techniques of forging and raising to create pieces, with a need of understanding the materials to get the best outcome. Her work has fine details and is finished to a high standard. Hallmarked in accordance to the Assay Office's rules and regulations. Hallmarked in London.
