Itinerary
- 10:00Design and briefing
Meet your silversmith, look through sample pieces, and sketch what you want to make — most people choose a ring, a pendant or a pair of earrings. The teacher will tell you honestly whether a design is achievable in two hours.
- 20:20Sawing and shaping
Cut your shape from a sheet or length of silver with a jeweller’s saw, then file and shape it. This is the slowest part and the one that decides how the finished piece looks.
- 30:55Soldering
Join the piece with a torch and solder — closing a ring, attaching a bail to a pendant, or fixing a decorative element. The teacher works alongside you for this step.
- 41:25Texturing and stone setting
Add texture by hammering, stamping or filing, and set a stone if your design calls for one. This is where two people making the same shape end up with completely different pieces.
- 51:45Polishing and finishing
Polish the piece up to a mirror finish, a brushed finish or an oxidised black, then take it home in a box. You keep what you make, and it is finished before you leave.

About the Silver Class Ubud
Of the nine places this class runs, Ubud is the one with a claim to the craft. Ten minutes down the road is Celuk, a village that has worked silver and gold for generations and still supplies a large share of what is sold across the island. The trade here is not a tourist invention; the workshop you sit in is part of a working ecosystem of benches, suppliers and stone dealers.
That matters for what you can make. Ubud studios tend to have the deepest stock of stones, findings and reference pieces, and teachers who came up through family workshops rather than a training course. If you arrive with a specific design in mind, this is the location most likely to be able to execute it.
It also fits the way people use Ubud. Almost nobody comes here for one thing — they come for a few days of temples, rice terraces, food and markets, and this drops neatly into an afternoon of that. It is indoors and unaffected by weather, which makes it the standard fallback when a morning of rain has cancelled something outdoors, and it pairs naturally with the Ubud ATV tracks or Ayung River rafting earlier the same day.
It suits people who want to make something with provenance, and who like the idea of learning a craft in the place that is actually known for it rather than in a studio near their hotel.
Safety, weather and cancellation
Tours run in light rain — the tracks are at their best when they are wet. If conditions are genuinely unsafe the activity is rescheduled or refunded in full, and that call is made by the guide on the day.
Free cancellation at least 1 day before the start. No refund less than 1 day before the start. No cancellation once the voucher has been used.
Silver Class Ubud questions
Is Ubud the best place in Bali for a silver jewellery class?
Ubud is the strongest location for a silver class in Bali because it sits ten minutes from Celuk, the village that has produced Balinese silverwork for generations. Ubud studios generally have the widest choice of stones and findings and teachers trained in family workshops.
What is Celuk village known for?
Celuk, just south of Ubud in Gianyar Regency, is the traditional silver and gold smithing village of Bali, supplying a large share of the silver jewellery sold across the island. The Ubud Silver Class sits within the same working craft area.
What can I combine with a silver class in Ubud?
The Ubud Silver Class takes two hours and runs indoors, so it combines easily with the Ubud ATV tracks or Ayung River rafting in the morning. It is also the usual substitute when rain cancels an outdoor activity.
How much is the silver jewellery class in Ubud?
The Silver Class in Ubud costs IDR 500,000 (about USD 32) per person for a two-hour workshop, including up to 5 grams of silver, all tools, an English-speaking silversmith and the finished piece to take home.
Do I need any experience to take a silversmithing class in Bali?
No experience is needed for the Silver Class. It is designed for complete beginners, and the teacher works alongside you for the technical steps such as soldering. Most people finish a ring or a pendant within the two hours.
What can you make in a two-hour silver class?
In a two-hour Silver Class most people make a ring, a pendant or a pair of simple earrings. More complex designs are possible but the silversmith will tell you at the start whether what you have in mind fits the time.
How much silver is included in the class?
Each Silver Class booking includes up to 5 grams of silver. Pieces that need more silver than that are charged for the extra material at the studio, and you keep whatever you make.
Do I keep the jewellery I make in the silver class?
Yes. You keep whatever you make in the Silver Class, and it is finished, polished and boxed before you leave — there is nothing to collect later and nothing to post home.
What is the minimum age for the silver jewellery class?
The minimum age for the Silver Class is 10, because the workshop involves a soldering torch and sharp tools. Younger children can come along and watch a parent work, but cannot take a bench themselves.
