Who it's for
Adults with no experience who want to make themselves a silver jewel; small groups

Silver clay is worked like a soft dough and, when heated, turns into metal. In El Puente Gallery's silver clay jewellery workshop you shape your piece with textures and tools, decide whether it has a stone, dry it and, with the help of the person running the workshop, fire it with a torch until it comes out silver. It can be a ring, a pendant, earrings or a keyring.

Five grams of silver and a stone

The workshop costs €75 and includes 5 grams of silver clay, a decorative stone, tools and textures, firing and coffee, tea or water. If your design needs more metal, each extra gram costs €5, and additional stones, €3 to €5. No experience is needed. It is for adults only, is given in Spanish and English and has room for six people at most, so there is space to ask questions and make mistakes. It lasts two and a half hours, from 18:00 to 20:30. The next sessions are 25 November and 3 and 16 December 2026.

A gallery in the Barrio de las Letras

El Puente Gallery is at Calle de Lope de Vega, 31, a few streets from Paseo del Prado, in a room that is both an art gallery and a jewellery studio. The nearest metro is Antón Martín, on line 1, about five minutes' walk. You book and pay on the website, on the listing for each date. If you are a group and no date suits you, the gallery organises private sessions: write by email or WhatsApp.

Tips

  • Think of the design beforehand Arrive with an idea of the piece: five grams stretch to something small.
  • Short nails To model the clay in detail it is easier without long nails.
  • Book a date early There are six places per session and three dates before Christmas: do not leave it to the last day.
