Have you Embraced your Giant Spirit yet?

Step away from the everyday and experience the joy of making something with your own hands.

At NI Silver, we invite you to reconnect with traditional skills and the creative spirit of generations past by crafting your own piece of jewellery, rather than simply buying one.

This is a chance to do something different. To create, not just consume.

To share meaningful moments with family, friends, or simply enjoy some well-earned time to yourself.

Every piece made carries a story, and every workshop becomes a memory that lasts far beyond your time in the studio.

Make space for a little “you time.” Unwind, switch off, and immerse yourself in something real; you’ve earned it.

We propud to a portfolio member of Tourism NI’s Embrace a Giant Spirit programme, offering soulful, hands-on experiences that reflect the creativity, warmth and character of Northern Ireland.

We are NI Silver

Where memories are made, stories are shared, and precious metals are transformed into something truly meaningful.

From sterling silver and copper to luxurious gold, platinum, and palladium, we work with a wide range of responsibly sourced metals.

Whether you’re after something simple or striking, timeless or completely bespoke, just let us know; we're here to help bring your ideas to life.

Our immersive jewellery-making workshops take place in our peaceful studio in Holywood, County Down and more information about them can be found by the links below.

We also handcraft meaningful “little pieces of home,” created from responsibly sourced metals. Inspired by Northern Ireland’s four natural elements, as well as its rich landscape, history, and folklore, each piece tells a story as unique as the place itself.

And if you have something unique in mind, we’d love to hear about it. We specialise in custom jewellery commissions, working closely with you to design and handcraft one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect your personality, your story, and your vision.

So whether you're making it yourself or having it made just for you, with NI Silver you’ll take home more than jewellery; you’ll carry your story in every piece.

Thanks for stopping by :)

  • Wedding Rings

    I cannot recommend doing this enough, I loved doing it, it's a great way to spend a day in the lead up to your wedding.

    The rings turned out really well and they feel a lot more precious to us because we got to work on them ourselves.

  • Jewellery Making

    Absolutely delighted with the ring I made in Ruth's workshop. Far exceeded my expectations and worth every penny.

    Ruth is the perfect host, she made us feel so welcome and was a knowledgeable and patient teacher.

    Her workshop is the perfect environment for a few mindful hours of creating jewellery and memories!

    Well worth the trip from Scotland and I will definitely be back.

  • Birthday Gift

    I bought my mum the silver making workshop for her birthday, and she said to me on the way home it was one of her best days in ages. We loved it.

    Ruth was so engaging and warm. She talked us through every step until we felt confident to do it on our own, and created such a relaxed and fun atmosphere from start to finish.

    We are delighted with what we made and I don't think they even look very homemade! We look forward to coming back.
