Your Tutor Zoe
Zoë is a Midlands based designer, silversmith, and metal artist. Drawing her inspiration from a love of both woodland and urban walks and pottering in her garden she creates very tactile and wearable pieces with a cohesiveness across collections. The majority of her work is in sterling silver with a strong use of copper adding a beautifully warm contrast, and a splattering of semi precious stones to add depth of colour in some designs.
To ensure the quality of your personal experience, group size will be limited to 6.
(Please note: a minimum number of 4 bookings is required in order for the session to go ahead)
Suitable for children aged 16 years and over must be accompanied by a paying adult.
