The Details
This is an IN-PERSON workshop at the MAGG Studio. Please plan to arrive no more than 15 minutes early to the class.
In this class, students will learn the traditional technique of open back filigree. Beginning with the simple materials of flat stock and round wire, students will twist, flatten, hammer, form and soler their materials into complete pieces. Some of the skills that will be developed in this class include how to make filigree wire, analyzing strength in layout and design, enhanced soldering skills, awareness of connections when soldering, and how quickly filigree wire can melt. The format of this technique will be taught as a pendant or earrings, but a motivated student would be welcome to branch out and try something more ambitious. Filigree is a tedious process that requires patience and consideration, as such, students will be encouraged to pace themselves accordingly with their projects. The instructor’s goal for this class is for each student to go home with confidence on the topic being presented.
