Kintsugi Jewellery Workshop, 29th January 2026
Kintsugi Jewellery Workshop, 29th January 2026
Join artist and jeweller Siobhan Ledden for an engaging Kintsugi workshop, where you will create either a pendant or a pair of earrings.
Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with precious metals, celebrating imperfections and revealing the beauty held within an object’s history and scars.
During the workshop, you will work with Urushi, a natural and durable lacquer derived from tree sap. This traditional material encourages a slower, more mindful process and is significantly more environmentally friendly than modern epoxy resins.
All materials are provided, but you are welcome to bring a broken ceramic item of sentimental value — such as a favourite cup or cherished vase — to restore and transform into a unique piece of jewellery to wear and keep.
You will gather in GULP’s dining room for refreshments, an introduction and a demonstration, before moving to the adjacent studio for the practical session.
£55 per person, including all materials and settings, expert tuition and refreshments.
Places are limited to small groups of 6–8 to ensure each participant receives individual attention and time for questions.
This two-hour workshop will take place on Thursday 29 January, 6.30–8.30pm. As Urushi is a natural lacquer that cures slowly, finished pieces will remain at GULP to fully set and will be ready for collection the following week. Items can also be posted for an additional cost.
A perfect treat for yourself or a thoughtful gift for someone special.
