Personalised Hammered Cuff Workshop with local Jeweller Bianca O'Neill

Join us for a relaxed, creative session at C.O.A.S.T, where you will learn to transform a simple strip of metal into a beautiful, wearable piece of jewellery.

Led by local jeweller Bianca O’Neill, who specialises in textured silver design, this workshop is a tactile introduction to metalwork. While Bianca’s professional collections focus on silver, this session uses versatile copper and aluminium, making it a low-pressure, beginner-friendly way to explore traditional hammering and stamping techniques.

Make it Meaningful

The beauty of a handmade cuff lies in its story. Because we use pre-prepared metal blanks (including copper plated brass, pre-coated in ProtectaClear to keep its shine), you can focus entirely on the creative design.

You will have access to metal letter stamps to "ink" your words directly into the metal, personalising your bracelet with:

● Meaningful affirmations to wear as a daily reminder.
● Names or initials of loved ones.
● Special dates or personal sayings.

Whether you are making a treat for yourself or a thoughtful, one-of-a-kind gift, you’ll leave with a finished piece that is entirely unique.

What You’ll Do:

● Texturing: Use professional hammers to create different light-catching patterns and organic textures.
● Personalisation: Learn the steady-hand technique of metal stamping to add names or quotes.
● Forming: Shape and curve your metal blank into a comfortable, adjustable cuff ready to wear home!

The Details:

This is an "experience-first" workshop, no prior skills or fancy tools required. It’s a safe, cold-connection process (no torches or heat), making it a wonderful activity to do with friends or family.
