    Yes, you could bring your bangle to our follow up one-day gem setting workshop to flush-set your own gemstones for an extra personal touch to your forged creation!

  • Is the venue accessible

    Unfortunately, no. As both of our studios are located in very old and beautiful period buildings, we have lots of stairs and are therefore not accessible for people with impaired mobility.
