Kelham Makes: Jesmonite Jewellery

Create your own Jesmonite Jewellery including handmade beads, necklaces, earrings, brooches and more with artist and maker, Kim Searle, using a variety of geometric and recycled moulds.   

Jesmonite was named material of the year 2017, have a go and see why! It's a versatile material that will create a different result every time. In this session, you'll learn how to weigh it, mix it, add colours and textural effects.  

Jewellery pieces can be made with pale pastels or vibrant colours, block colours or fantastic marbled or terrazzo effects. These can be sanded and painted to create individual jewellery pieces unique to you. You’ll get to try a type of Jesmonite that will set by the end of the session, as well as another type that will set the next day and has a much more organic look.  

All materials provided, no experience necessary. 

There’s also another Jesmonite workshop later in the day where participants will create their own Jesmonite coasters – find out more here.
