Make a gold ring experience in our Reading workshop

" You're not just making a piece of jewellery from scratch, but creating a unique and personal experience all the way to the end. This created a very unique personal experience as well as a very beautiful shiny ring at the end of it! Highly recommended."

'It was a wonderful experience, and we really enjoyed the day! We've both gained an appreciation for the level of skill and effort it takes to craft a ring.'

Ben G - Spring 2025

My daughter and I absolutely loved our time at the “Ring in a Day” workshop. It was such a unique and enriching experience! We learned so much, from the history of jewellery making to modern techniques, and followed the entire process of creating a silver ring step by step. From melting and shaping the metal to measuring and rolling it into form, every stage was hands-on and fascinating.
Our favourite part was the hammering—it was so satisfying! Caitlin, the expert designer, guided us with skill and patience, making the process both fun and approachable. We truly had a wonderful time and are thrilled with the beautiful rings we made ourselves (with a little help, of course). Thank you'
