Beginners Silver Jewellery Class

If you’re looking to try something genuinely hands-on and creative in the city, the Jewellers Academy Brighton is running its popular Beginners Silver Jewellery Class. This is a full one-day course focused entirely on silversmithing, perfect if you’ve always wanted to learn how to work with metal but never knew where to start. The academy is located at 69 Middle Street, BN1 1AL, tucked away in The Lanes. It’s described as a bright, friendly studio space, and its location is super convenient—just a few minutes walk from the beach and easily accessible from the train station. Being surrounded by the independent shops, cafes, and galleries of The Lanes definitely adds to the creative atmosphere while you’re there.

This class is specifically aimed at 'complete beginners,' so you don't need any prior experience to sign up. The course is structured around developing essential manual skills and techniques in jewellery making. The main goal is practical: by the end of the day, you’ll walk away with two finished pieces of your own making—a silver ring and a pendant. It’s a chance to dedicate a full day to mastering the basics of a new craft, rather than just a quick taster session.

Since this is a one-day course, it’s a substantial commitment, generally aligning with the academy’s typical operating hours of 10 am to 5 pm. The teaching is handled by experienced jewellers who manage their own businesses, which means you’re getting instruction from people who are actively working in the trade and can offer real-world context. If you’re considering booking, the cost for the full Beginners Silver Jewellery Class is £149. It’s one of the many jewellery classes offered at the academy, but this specific workshop is designed to give you a solid foundation in silver jewellery making.
