In the brooch and pin workshop each participant will make a brooch or a pin. The shape will be designed, pierced and cut from brass or copper sheet using a jeweller’s saw. A simple back will be fashioned and soldered onto the piece for fastening. We will be using a range of techniques to create textures hammered onto the surface, or rolled in the mill, or curved in the dapping block
