forged hoops Workshop

Design and fabricate a pair of silver hoops.

Who knew wire could be this good?

In this class you’ll design and fabricate the perfect pair of sterling silver hoop earrings by using forging and forming techniques.

We’ll teach you how to use bending and controlled hammering to shape, harden, and refine wire into a balanced, well-constructed pair of earrings made from solid sterling silver.

Designs may be geometric or organic, symmetrical or asymmetrical. Create a bold statement pair or simple hoops for everyday wear. The options are endless. Check out examples in the GALLERY below.
