Wire Knotting Techniques - The Prolong Knot Bracelet
|
Course description:
|
|
A hands-on one-day workshop, to introduce the student to the principles of tying complex knots in precious wire, specifically addressing the Prolong Knot, or Ocean Plat, made into a bracelet.
|
Materials:
|
|
Participants are provided with a fixture, fine silver wire, and some tools. Some familiarity with wirework and jewelry making is useful, but not essential. It is also helpful, and equally unnecessary, to have some experience with tying knots in other media.
|
Goals:
|
|
By the end of the session, it is anticipated that every participant will have completed a silver bracelet. The workshop will not address the soldering or polishing of the finished piece, but if facilities are present, these can be handled on an ad hoc basis.
