Description
Intermediate Woven Wirework Pendant WORKSHOP Live in Banbury on Saturday 27th November 2021
Join designer and tutor Jem Hawkes for a space limited in person jewellery making workshop
We will learn to weave multiple strips of wire together in a decorative manner, before forming a bezel to fit our gemstones, completing the bail and securing it all together safely. Optionally we can add further flourishes to the design.
Suited for intermediate wireworkers, those with at least some wire jewellery handling and making experience.
Access to loaner tools, wire and either Blue Dyed Onyx or Tiger’s Eye gemstone is included in the workshop price.
I will bring other gemstones along which can be purchased if you prefer. Or feel free to bring your own ROUND cabochon (minimum 30mm) to class. Also if you would rather use your own tools, please do bring them along.
You will need chain nose pliers, round nose pliers and decent cutters at a minimum. But also it would be great to use also bail making pliers if you have them.
The class will run in person from 10am until 4pm or thereabouts in a central Banbury location.

Jem is an excellent teacher. Had no tech issues with the online class. Thoroughly enjoyed the class and learnt new wiring techniques and finished the project during the class. Thank you Jem for a great class definitely will do more.

Absolutely fabulous pendant, with the added bonus of a butterfly on the back, Jem doesn’t know I have a love connected to butterflies. She makes the most innovative jewellery I have ever seen. It arrived within days & also included little extras which I love. It’s a shame my bank balance wouldn’t stretch to everything I adore on her site.This was a special birthday gift from my husband for my 60th, & it’s so special that the present bought was from Jem.
Thank you hun it’s wonderful & I adore it & you, you are a very special lady with amazing talent xxxx
