Curious about Argentium silver? This class is the perfect introduction. Understanding Argentium offers greater versatility in design and a fun way to expand skill levels. Argentium contains no copper, the element responsible for fire scale, and behaves uniquely it balls rather than pits, fuses and solders easily, and is very soft when annealed but very hard when work-hardened.

In this introductory class, participants will learn fusing techniques and the best scenarios for fusing. They will create quick projects, such as a ring and a short chain or earrings. The class will cover tips for annealing, work-hardening, and finishing Argentium. It is hands-on, with participants using torches, a rolling mill, and hand tools.
