Once you have taken a couple of fine silver classes, it's time to begin using your scraps as a creative jumping off point to make pendants from scratch. This class will focus on experimentation using the marriage of metals combined with reticulation. The results are organic and one-of-a-kind. It is imperative that students already have at least one fusing and one soldering workshop under their belt so that the class can focus on these advanced techniques. Students are asked to bring their fine silver scraps (to add to what will be provided), grungy (natural fiber) clothes, and glasses (prescription, reading, or clear safety). The materials fee paid to the instructor covers all other supplies, handouts, and use of tools.
