Commissioned Jewellery Pieces

At Silver Forge, we specialise in commissioned jewellery pieces, offering our clients the opportunity to bring their ideas to life. If you have a concept you'd like to see become a reality, look no further. From initial consultations to sketches and the final product, Jo works diligently to ensure that each commissioned piece is a true work of art, tailored to the individual's desires and preferences.

Jewellery Stock and Workshops

In addition to our commissioned work, we offer a comprehensive range of necklaces, bangles, earrings, rings, and more in our shop. Our collections feature both traditional and modern designs using various materials, including silver, fine silver, gold, and gemstones. We invite you to stop by and explore our unique offerings.

For those interested in learning the art of jewellery making, we offer workshops and courses at our studio. Our curriculum includes both traditional techniques and cutting-edge methods, such as silver clay and laser engraving. Our experienced instructors cater to various skill levels, from beginners to advanced students, ensuring that each participant leaves with newfound knowledge and skills.

Galleries and Past Commissions

We are proud to showcase our past commissions and student work in our galleries, highlighting the diversity and creativity of our projects. Our Men's Gallery features a collection of handcrafted pieces designed specifically for men, using damascus or sterling silver. Over the years, we have had the privilege of creating some truly extraordinary pieces for our clients, which you can explore in our Past Commissions gallery.

Silver Forge is more than just a jewellery shop and studio; it is a space where creativity thrives, and dreams become tangible. We invite you to visit us, explore our collections, and consider commissioning a bespoke piece that reflects your unique style and personality.
