Where to find jewellery studios in Edinburgh

Old Town & Grassmarket

Edinburgh's historic centre has independent jewellery studios running classes year-round. Popular with visitors as well as locals — sessions here book up fastest, especially August–September. Book at least 2–3 weeks ahead.

Leith

Edinburgh's regenerated waterfront neighbourhood has a growing arts and crafts studio scene that includes silversmithing. Slightly quieter booking competition than the Old Town, and an excellent area to spend time around your class.

Stockbridge & New Town

Edinburgh's affluent arts neighbourhood has a small number of jewellery makers and studio spaces. Good for ongoing courses and regular class formats aimed at Edinburgh residents.

South Edinburgh (Marchmont, Morningside)

Independent tutors listed on CraftCourses sometimes work from south Edinburgh addresses. Smaller, more personal class settings — worth checking if you're based in this area.

Are jewellery classes available in Edinburgh during the Fringe?

Yes, though sessions sell out faster in August. If you're visiting during the Edinburgh Festival, book 3–4 weeks ahead to secure a Saturday or Sunday session. Weekday slots have better last-minute availability even during Fringe.

Can I learn silversmithing properly in Edinburgh rather than just a taster?

Yes — CraftCourses lists Edinburgh and Scottish silversmithing tutors who run multi-week courses. These go beyond the taster format and cover additional techniques like stone setting, texturing, and forming. A good option if you've already done a silver ring making class and want to develop the skill.

Is a jewellery making class in Edinburgh a good gift idea?

Yes — it's a very popular Edinburgh gift experience, especially for visitors. ClassBento gift vouchers allow the recipient to pick their own date and studio after arrival. Available year-round, including during Fringe and Christmas periods (book ahead for peak periods). Browse silver ring making gifts →
