This course focuses on the excitement of working with contrasting metals, to develop surface patterns and textures in jewelry and/or small sculpture. Students explore the various methods of soldered sheet metal inlay, plain and twisted wire inlay and solder inlay, making samples of each. Samples are incorporated into a piece; subsequently students make a piece of their choice using married metals, exploring patinas and surface treatment to complement the metals.

Prerequisite: Metals + Jewelry 1 or equivalent experience.

Materials Kit provided. Registration includes a $35 materials fee.

Tuition and fees for classes at the Baltimore Jewelry Center are subsidized in large part by grants and contributions from our community. The rate that we charge for each class covers only 60% of the true cost to run the class. In an effort to more equitably fund our classes and encourage more donations to subsidize our programs, we are now pricing classes on a sliding scale. If you are able to do so, please consider paying a higher rate for your class. The difference you pay will be considered a donation and you will be issued a donation receipt.
