Stamping Station – Personalise a Silver Pendant

The Sea Glass or Stone Pendant Studio Experience

A private studio experience (maximum two participants) with dedicated tuition and sterling silver included.

Spend the day at the bench creating your own sterling silver sea glass or stone pendant at the beCHARLO Studio on the Isle of Wight.

In this relaxed 6-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to transform a piece of sea glass or a cabochon stone into a beautifully finished pendant using traditional silversmithing techniques. You’ll create a bezel setting, solder the components together and carefully set your chosen glass or stone before refining and polishing the final piece.

Each piece of sea glass carries its own story, shaped by years of movement in the sea, making every pendant completely unique.

No previous experience is needed – just curiosity and a willingness to try.

If you already have some jewellery-making experience, you can focus more on the bezel-setting technique and adapt the design to create a piece of jewellery that suits your style.

What’s included:

• Sterling silver for your pendant
• A selection of sea glass or cabochon stones to choose from (you can bring your own).
• Full step-by-step guidance in my professional jewellery studio
• Use of silversmithing tools and equipment
• Tea, treats and plenty of creative encouragement
• Your finished sterling silver sea glass or stone pendant to take home

During the workshop you’ll learn

• How to create a bezel setting for your glass or stone
• Sawing, filing and shaping silver
• Soldering jewellery using a blowtorch
• How to carefully set an irregular sea glass piece
• Polishing and finishing your pendant

Perfect for:
• Complete beginners curious about jewellery making
• Those wanting to learn or develop stone / sea glass setting techniques
• Birthdays, anniversaries & meaningful gifts
• Anyone wanting to slow down, learn a new skill and create something special

Come and experience the joy of making, and take home a piece of jewellery filled with story, meaning and your own creative touch.
