I had a highly knowledgeable teacher and an amazing jeweller in her own right. With her great design and problem solving abilities whatever you can conceive she can assist you in realising.
I’ve done two courses at LJW and I’ve had the best time.
I’ve learnt the basics and have the knowledge and confidence to carry on personal projects on my own.
I’ve enjoyed every minute and can’t wait to come back!
