Welcome To Metal & Flame, Jewellery School, Liverpool
|
Metal and Flame Jewellery school is situated in Litherland, Liverpool. We are passionate about passing on traditional jewellery making skills to our students. M&F is a small but professional workshop equipped with all the tools needed for your classes. In our intimate studio we take no more than five students at a time. This provides a good tutor/student ratio, allowing for the support and guidance needed to enhance your skills. It also allows access to the various tools without waiting too long.
We offer various courses and workshops in both silver jewellery, as well as beaded and gemstone costume jewellery. These vary from short one day taster classes, to longer six week courses for beginners, intermediate and advanced students. We also do in depth one day workshops like wax carving, enamelling, stone setting and various types of casting - like sand, cuttlefish, water, broom and food casting. |

One Day Taster Classes Our one-day silver jewellery taster classes are a great introduction to jewellery making and are ideal for beginners. The aim is for people to discover their creative potential and learn some techniques they can continue to use at home. People are always amazed with the quality of the pieces they leave with and very often a taster class will be the start of a new hobby or even a career. Our taster classes vary from a couple of hours to full day workshops, which include - silver earrings, pendants and bangle making. Rings include, stacking and spinner rings, and costume jewellery such as charm bracelets. |

Six Week Courses
Our longer six week courses are designed to ensure you learn the techniques needed to create jewellery and enable you to start your own small workshop. Our Jewellery making courses are as flexible as possible - we don't tell you what you have to make, but instead you are guided in whatever you choose to do. You will receive individual tuition at a pace suited to you. Everyone works on their own projects at their own pace, which has the extra benefit of creating a fabulously diverse range of techniques within one course. The Silver Jewellery Beginners course will cover techniques such as piercing, soldering, filing, adding interest with texture and polishing. The Intermediate classes we will cover patination, reticulation, fusing, granulation and rub over stone/bezel settings. The advanced classes teach you techniques such as fold forming, tube setting, enamelling. |
