SUMMARY:Make a Gem of a Jewel: Stone Setting and Design Techniques for Jewellery
DESCRIPTION:Gemstone to Jewellery Magic: Choose a stone\, explore ways to set it\, design and make a gem of a jewel – 10 Week Course (Evening\, Wed).\nBook Now\n\n– What is your favourite gemstone? How would you choose to wear it? Your stone of choice is most beautiful to see when the jewellery element has been well designed to best show the gem. On this 10 week jewellery course we explore ways to combine stone setting and design techniques to make magic! \nWhat will I learn?\nThe course is presented in 2 projects that develop technical skills while also encouraging experimentation and design development. \nTo begin\, you’ll get to choose a gemstone from our selection. This will then be the source of inspiration for your designs. \n\nProject 1 – Choose a semi-precious gemstone. Then design and make a necklace (or ring) that incorporates your gemstone.\n\n\nProject 2 – Design and make a bracelet or earrings to match.\n\nIs this course for me?\nWhether you’re exploring jewellery for the first time\, or a seasoned pro\, we structure our Wednesday evening courses to suit all levels of jewellery making skill.  \nBeginners: By the end of this course you will know how to \n\nSet your gemstone of choice\, using the rub-over  technique. Design a piece of jewellery that highlights your gemstone. Cut\, shape\, texturise\, form\, file and polish metals like copper and silver. Permanently join 2 or more elements together using traditional silver soldering techniques. Meanwhile\, you will have designed and made 2 pieces of jewellery with gemstones\, that work together as a set.\n\nAdvanced: You may wish to use this term’s theme to further enrich your own skillset. In this case we encourage independent project work. So\, complementary to the above\, you will have the opportunity to \n\nClaw-set your gemstone of choice\, and forge a bar or form a sheet of your preferred metal (copper\, silver\, gold) to best match your jewellery design.\n\nBook Now\nCourse code: G35 \nCourse Tutor: Vicky Forrester \nMax student numbers:  12 students  \nSuitable for: All levels of skill\, beginners to advanced. \nCourse Dates: 15 January – 25 March 2020 \nHalf term break – week of 17-21 Feb \nClass Times: Wednesday evenings\, 6.15 – 9.15pm \nCourse Fee:  £295  \nMaterials Kit : Basic materials are included. \n \n

SUMMARY:Design and Make a Box-Form Cocktail Ring  (and improve your soldering skills) (C33)
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to make large\, hollow pieces of jewellery from sheet metal. Design and make your own cocktail ring using the box-form technique\, and improve your soldering skills along the way!\nBook Now\n– With eyes firmly on the cocktail ring outcome\, this course also packs a technical punch. Once you understand the principle of the box-form technique for ring making\, you will understand that you can afford to go wild and large with your designs.  \nSince you are working with sheet to construct your design\, the end result is both light and robust. This makes it a cost effective way to make a statement\, and also the design principles can be transferred to pendants\, bangles and other jewellery objects. \nFor this course we have designed 3 projects that embed technical and design development skills\, which lead to the grand-finale cocktail ring. \nYou also get a side benefit\, in that you’ll need to solder lots of seams\, so your technical skills will gain a super-boost in the process! \nProject 1 – make a hollow ring from sheet metal\, using 2 contrasting metals \nProject 2 – experimenting with forming techniques for 3D impact \nProject 3– design and make a silver cocktail ring \nWhat will I learn?\nYou will know how to make large forms from sheet that are also light and wearable. You’ll also have a good understanding of the constraints of the processes. You should have a better knowledge of common materials and how to get the best from them\, and additionally your soldering skills will have improved since you will have used a wide range of soldering techniques to create complex 3D forms. \nAnd you will have made: a sample a ring in copper and brass; a collection of experimental metal sheets that explore how formed metal can also be incorporated to create ever more extraordinary forms; a statement silver cocktail ring. \nBook Now\nCourse Tutor: Becky Dockree  and Katherine Brunacci \nMax student numbers: 12 students with 2 tutors. \nCourse Dates: 19 April – 4 July 2019. \nHalf term break – May 27-31 \nClass Times: Thursday evenings\, 6.15pm – 9.15pm \nCourse Fee:  Standard fee £260 / *Concessions £235 \n*f you are on a low wage\, or in receipt of tax credits or other benefit you qualify for the Flux concessionary rate.

SUMMARY:Etching Techniques for Jewellery (B33)
DESCRIPTION:Explore ways to add texture to your jewellery using etching techniques. Learn how to apply mordants and resists  to create interesting surface decoration on a variety of metals. (Evening\, Tuesdays).\n Book Now\n\n– Etching is an especially effective technique to add pattern\, line and texture to your jewellery\, and on this course we introduce you to a range of approaches that are particular to jewellery applications. \nTraditionally\, etching is used by printmakers as a process for making repeatable prints on paper. However\, when we apply the technique\, our focus is directly on mark-making to enhance the surface of metal. Taking a print from your finished pieces would be the real icing on the cake!  \nYou’ll learn all about the pros and cons of various mordants and resists\, and the associated health and safety issues relating to their usage. \nWhat will I learn?\nYou’ll gain invaluable experience using traditional mordant / resist applications used in etching (Acids to dissolve the metal\, varnishes\, stencils\, tapes to stop out the surface). You’ll also experiment with a form of photo etching\, where a photographic image can be etched onto metal plate.  We’ll cover electro etching too – this is a relatively safe method for etching non precious metals at home.. \nFinally\, we’ll discuss how to add colour using cold enamels\, oxides and other patinas. \nWhat will I produce?\nYou’ll produce a range of test pieces that explore the various approaches to etching\, also reflecting your personal aesthetic. We anticipate that your samples will provide lasting reference -and inspiration- for your future jewellery projects. \nIt’s likely that you will produce several finished pieces of jewellery during the course. Alternatively you may wish to concentrate on producing as many exploratory samples as possible for your future jewellery projects. \nMaterials\nThe course fee covers the cost of your materials for initial experiments. If you are working on larger pieces for your personal projects we can supply the metal for you at cost. \nIf you’d like to work with precious metals you may also bring your own supply to work with. \nHallmarking\nWe are able to offer a hallmarking service for precious jewellery made at Flux. So if you  would like to have your work hallmarked with the Flux Studios hallmark we can arrange this at cost price. \nCourse Tutor: Vicky Forrester and Becky Dockree \nMax student numbers: 10 students  \nCourse Dates: 23 April – 2 July 2019. (Half term: 28 May – 1 June) \nClass Times: Tuesday evenings\, 6.15-9.15pm \nCourse Fee:  Standard: £260 / *Concessions: £235  \n*if you are on a low wage\, or in receipt of tax credits or other benefit you qualify for the Flux concessionary rate.

You will have the opportunity to improve existing skills\, meanwhile also developing new skills by exploring new techniques. As the course progresses you can end up producing rings\, bangles and brooches\, experimental jewellery\, art pieces etc. In addition\, throughout these courses we introduce a new theme or technique to the group\, to stimulate new ways of working.

SUMMARY:Wax Carving for Casting Silver Jewellery (C32)
DESCRIPTION:Wax Carving for Casting Silver Jewellery (Evening\, Thu).\nBook Now\n– On this 10 week jewellery course you will learn a range of the wax carving techniques we commonly use to create models for casting in silver or other metals. \nWe’ll introduce you to the practical issues of measuring and marking\, and of cutting\, shaping and polishing wax objects\, ready for casting. We’ll also explain about the relative weights of materials you are likely to use. In the process you’ll learn how to reduce the weight without compromising the visual impact of your design. \nSize\, dimension and the choice of metal affects the weight – and cost – of your final outcome. Since objects cast from wax can be heavy (and thus\, expensive) we’ll also talk about plating processes for jewellery. For example\, choosing to cast in bronze and then gold plating your design is more cost effective than having your wax design cast in solid gold. \nYou will experience first hand the differences between types of waxes commonly used for making wax models\, through a series of set projects: \n\n Wax carving: design and carve a ring in wax\nDesign and make an item suitable for batch production\n\nWe can take your wax models to the casters\, and your results can be cast in bronze\, brass\, silver or gold. \n(NOTE We will work out the likely cost in various metals beforehand\, so you you’ll know what to expect to pay.  You will need to pay this fee for your model to be cast up.) \nWhat will I learn?\nBy the end of this course you will know how to cut\, carve\, manipulate and polish wax to realise your designs. You will be able to prepare your items for professional lost wax casting. You’ll also have a good understanding of the constraints of the processes and materials involved. You should also understand how to make a prototype in wax that can be reproduced to make multiples of the same design. Additionally your design skills will have improved. You will  have an understanding of how to create good wax designs for the casting process. \nBook Now\nCourse Tutor:Becky Dockree  and Katherine Brunacci \nMax student numbers: 12 students with 2 tutors.  \nCourse Dates: 17 January – 21 March 2019.  \nClass Times: Thursday evenings\, 6.15pm – 9.15pm \nCourse Fee:  Standard fee £260 / *Concessions £235 \n*f you are on a low wage\, or in receipt of tax credits or other benefit you qualify for the Flux concessionary rate.

In this way we support you to develop sound technical skills while also encouraging experimentation and design development.  \nWhat will I learn on this course?\nYou will learn how to manipulate sheet metal to create interesting\, three dimensional forms. In the first instance you will make 3 pendants. Then once you grasp the concepts of forming you can apply these techniques to create more complex jewellery items like bangles\, cuffs and collars. \nOur beginner courses always provide a solid grounding in the core jewellery techniques we employ when designing and making jewellery. These skills include design\, texturing\, cutting\, filing\, drilling\, shaping\, soldering and polishing metal. To finish your jewellery we’ll show you how to make jump rings and other attachments. \nWhat will I make on this course?\nWe present the course in 3 projects that progressively build on your jewellery making skills.  By the end of the course you will have made at least 3 pendants\, and there should also be time to use your newfound skills and knowledge to design and make an additional piece\, perhaps in silver. \n\n1 – Design and make an elliptical pendant with a pierced pattern.\n2 – Use folding techniques to make rectangular pendant with textured surfaces.\n3 – Make a small cylindrical pendant using contrasting metals like brass and copper.\n4 – Design and make your own pendant\, using your newfound skills and knowledge\n\nWhat will I know?\nBy the end of this course you will know how to design and make an item of jewellery from sheet metals like copper and silver. Additionally you will know how to apply texturing techniques to add contrast and character to your designs.  You’ll also be able to use a range of soldering and forming techniques to create light\, hollow forms like beads and pendants. Furthermore you will have a beginning understanding of the spatial and technical issues we need to take into account when designing and making elements that fit together (ie the lidded box). \nBook Now\nCourse Tutors: Becky Dockree and Emma McGilchrist \nMax student numbers: 12 students with 2 tutors.  \nCourse Dates: 16 Jan– 20 March 2019 (No half term break) \nClass Times: Wed eves\, 6.15pm  -9.15pm \nCourse Fee:  Standard: £260 / *Concessions: £235 \n*f you are on a low wage\, or in receipt of tax credits or other benefit you qualify for the Flux concessionary rate.

SUMMARY:Experimental stone setting techniques - Delft\, Claw and Wax (B28)
DESCRIPTION:Explore experimental and conventional approaches to stone setting. Combine traditional and experimental techniques to produce unusual\, stone-set jewellery. (Evenings\, Tuesdays).\n Book Now\n– On this jewellery course we explore traditional and experimental stone setting techniques in order to re-imagine new ways to design jewellery with stones.  \nThe aim of the course is to create designs that begin with the stone as the source of inspiration. How best can you show all off the qualities of your stone?  \nFirstly we begin with the bare fundamentals of traditional stone setting. Once you understand how to create simple\, reliable settings using conventional techniques\, you can then adapt these processes to truly honour the spirit of your gemstones.  \nSince the stone becomes the focus\, then we are free to explore design and technique in equal measure. \nThis course is presented in 3 projects that explore a range of techniques you can employ for creative stone setting.  \n\nExplore setting techniques that use claws. Make a traditional claw setting to understand the principles. Then deconstruct and reconstruct the setting to explore the necessary elements that keep your gemstone secure.\nWork with wax to create a setting for a large stone (pendant or ring).\nUse the delft sand casting technique to set a stone directly into molten metal (pendant or ring).\n\n\nExtension Project – Use your project results to create a unique pair of earrings with an experimental stone setting.\n\n Book Now\nCourse Tutor: Vicky Forrester \nMax student numbers: 10 students  \nCourse Dates: 19 Sept – 21 Nov 2017 \nClass Times: Tuesday evenings\, 6.15 – 9.15 pm \nCourse Fee:  Standard: £260 / Concessions: £225 / Tuesday Extra £430 \nMaterials Kit : Basic materials are included. \n  \n Book Now
