Effortless, versatile, and endlessly wearable - the paperclip chain has become a modern staple. Wear it solo, layer it up, wrap it around your wrist as a bracelet, or add a pendant using the functional shepherd’s hook clasp for a look that’s entirely your own.
In this hands-on class, you’ll create your own adjustable paperclip chain necklace in sterling silver. Each link is formed and assembled by hand, giving you a deeper understanding of both construction and design.
You’ll also have the option to incorporate a piece of genuine turquoise, a true Southwestern classic known for its connection to water, sky, protection, and vitality. Whether you choose to include stone or keep it all silver, you’ll leave with a piece that reflects your personal style.
This class blends technique with creativity, with a strong focus on soldering practice, resulting in a versatile piece you’ll reach for again and again.
Techniques we’ll cover:
forming, soldering, oxidation, polishing, stone setting
Materials we’ll use:
sterling silver, genuine turquoise (optional)
No previous jewelry-making experience required.
