Pewter Bowl or Spoon Workshop
Workshop Leader: Ella McIntosh
Saturday 24th June, 10am - 4pm
Join Ella for a full day of metal bashing & skill learning to handcraft your own pewter spoon or bowl
Experience pewter smithing to create your own pewter bowl or spoon using traditional metalwork skills.
Ella will guide you through the variety of traditional metalwork skills needed to design and make your bowl or spoon (decide on the day) before you take it home to proudly use.
We will be working with sheet metal to raise your bowl or spoon from a flat sheet of metal. Using hammers and formers with a variety of heritage craft skills such as raising, piercing, soldering and polishing techniques.
Please choose a spoon or bowl ticket at checkout. This is not binding (just to give Ella a rough materials guide) and there will be an opportunity to swap on the day. If you’re unsure what you’d like to make please select either ticket or contact Ella via email if you’d like to discuss any options.
Pewter is a lead-free metal, traditionally used to make tankards and tableware.
Ella is a multi-award-winning contemporary pewter smith who established her practice in 2012. Suitable for beginners or those with previous silver or jewellery experience.
