Silvera Jewelry School

Join us on October 20th when Joe and Anat Silvera will give a virtual tour of their school, and talk about all of their classes which include the basics of jewelry fabrication, stone setting, lost wax casting, enameling, and more. All classes are grounded in traditional techniques. Their intensive workshops are offered year round and packed with techniques, tips and finished projects. Class costs include all of the materials and use of tools, so nothing extra to buy. All student benches are fully equipped with tools – including flex shafts, soldering set ups, etc. The classes use home friendly tools and chemicals so that you can continue practicing in your home studio.

The Silvera Jewelry School was founded in 2010 by Anat and Joe Silvera, who have over 20 years of jewelry making experience, including more than 12 years of teaching students how to fabricate jewelry. Their school is located in West Berkeley near shops and restaurants. Workshops are available as one day and multi-day classes in jewelry techniques, like soldering, stone setting, enameling and lost wax casting. Joe has over 25 years of jewelry and teaching experience, from his BFA with honors in jewelry, to working as a goldsmith, model maker in the casting industry, and selling his own jewelry at shows and galleries.

The mission of SJS is simple: to teach professional jewelry skills using home studio friendly tools. Whether students are raw beginners or intermediate, teens or adults, their teaching style emphasizes a clear understanding of technique and good craftsmanship. Most classes are structured around sample projects that clearly demonstrate the technique. As students make their own variations, the teachers offer hands-on help and critique and are organized to allow enough time to complete projects, including polishing, and students are given color handouts with step-by-step instructions and photos so that they can continue to practice at home.
