Hanoi: Wire Art Jewelry Making Workshop & Design Choice

Make your own wire jewelry while Linh walks you through each technique

You choose a wire jewelry design from the studio's catalog or bring your own sketch, then spend three hours crafting it with Linh's guidance. All materials, tools, gemstones, and tea are included. The workshop runs daily from 2pm to 5pm in central Hanoi, and you leave with a finished piece you designed yourself.

The experience

The tools are already laid out on the workbench when you arrive: pliers, wire cutters, spools of copper and silver wire in different gauges, and trays of gemstones catching the light. Linh, the instructor, is there to meet you, and within minutes you're holding a design from the Consocia catalog or unfolding a sketch you brought from home. The workshop runs from 2pm to 5pm every day, which gives you three solid hours to move from choosing a piece to finishing it. You don't need experience. The focus is on wire art jewelry, and Linh teaches the techniques as you go: how to coil, bend, wrap, and set stones so they stay put.

What makes this different from watching a video at home is that you get to pick. Some people choose a simple ring or bracelet from the catalog because they want something they can wear immediately. Others bring a design they've sketched or found online, and Linh helps them figure out how to build it with wire. If you want to add gemstones from the studio's collection (and there are plenty to choose from), you can, or you can bring your own materials. Either way, all the tools, wire, and basic materials are included, so you're not buying anything extra once you walk in.

The workshop is wheelchair accessible, and public transportation stops nearby if you don't have a car. You'll get free refilled water and Vietnamese tea while you work, which matters on an afternoon in Hanoi. Book at least one day ahead, and show up ready to make something you'll actually wear. It's not a rushed class where everyone makes the same thing. It's three hours of your hands doing the work while someone who knows the craft is there to solve the problems that come up.

• All tools and materials for wire jewelry making, including pliers, wire cutters, wire in various gauges, and gemstones from the studio collection.
