Fusing Fun with Argentium Silver | Instructor Linda Bernasconi
3 day workshop | Live, in-person or virtual
Schedule: 10 am - 5 pm, Friday 2/21, Saturday 2/22, Sunday 2/23____________
Have you been wanting to explore using Argentium Silver but don't know where to start? Good news, this class will introduce you to the magic of Argentium. This alloy has it all; fuses to itself with just the heat of the torch, no solder, opening up design possibilities not achievable with traditional sterling silver. And NO firescale!!
In this project-based class, we will break Argentium Silver (AS) sheet while hot to make irregular peices. These pieces will be arranged and fused onto an AS base to form a pendant. Next, we will learn how to grind AS into dust. The dust will be fused on in layers to create the textures in a pair of earrings. Make my demo design or use the materials for your own design.
Finally, students will learn how to make and fuse 22k gold granules and 22k gold dust.
If learning about Argentium has been a goal, come join us for this three day workshop in a fun and creative atmosphere.
