It was a really fun...

David_B, Jul 2026
It was a really fun class. The instructors were super friendly, and took care to make sure everyone was following and not getting lost. They made sure we knew it would be pretty hard to make a mistake they couldn't help us fix.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Fun Experience

Carrie_F, Jun 2026
This is a fun hands on activity and you get to leave Dublin with something you made yourself. The instructors were friendly and helpful and they taught the workshop in a way that it was easy to understand. The workshop lasted a little under two hours so there is plenty of time to explore after you are finished.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hello Carrie, We appreciate your recommendation. Thank you for your kind words. We're so glad you felt that this is personal and felt guided al throughout. Warm regards, The Silver Works Team X

Lord of the Rings

Jonathan_M, Jun 2026
Great experience, fun to do. Your ring will look great and it’s a perfect souvenir from Dublin. The location we went to (24 Drury) is right in the middle of Temple Bar so there’s a ton of stuff to look at (or eat) before and after.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hi Jonathan, Thank you so much. We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring our location. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope you’ll find your next favorite piece with us again soon! Warm regards, The Silver Works Team X

Highly reccommended!

Fun activity with adult kids.

Make your own rings - a hit!

JamieBeth_F, Jun 2026
So much fun. You get to do everything except the danger things - soldering and polishing. And you need to “trust the process” because it won’t seem it during but at the end you get an absolutely beautiful ring made by you!!!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hello Jamie, Thank you so much for your lovely review! ‘Trust the process’ really is part of the journey 😊 It’s always amazing to watch a simple piece of silver transform into a beautiful handmade ring, and we’re thrilled you loved the final result. Thank you again for joining us. Warm regards, The Silver Works Team X

A Gift to Yourself

marsha_s, Jun 2026
If you’ve ever wanted to try something new and different, you’re in for a treat here. You choose the pattern of your ring, you’re given a narrow piece of silver and with the expert guidance of jewelry artist Owen, you form and actually make your very own ring! It was a spectacular experience. I keep looking at my ring with such pride that I twisted and smoothed and pounded this all by myself! I’d give it a TEN if I could.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hello Marsha, Thank you so much for this incredible review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear how much you enjoyed the experience and how proud you feel wearing the ring you created with your own hands. Warm regards, The Silver Works Team X

So much fun!

kristina_k, Jun 2026
This experience was so fun and well-planned out. We began with a small strip of silver and ended with a beautiful ring. The staff were so kind and helpful and funny. I highly recommend this activity.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hello Kristina, Thank you so much for your recommendation. Creating a meaningful, handmade souvenir that guests can take home and treasure is at the heart of what we do, so it means a lot to hear you enjoyed the experience. Warm regards, The Silver Works Team X

Fabulous experience

Dianne_O, May 2026
Was so amazing! Would recommend to anyone. Staff was very courteous and helpful and humorous. One suggestion.....when hammering on the mandrel to size the ring it would be helpful to indicate that you should push the ring harder down than you think necessary. If you don't push down hard, you'll be putting dents in the ring without making it bigger.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thanks for the Review Dianne, We will be sure to take your comment into consideration when explaining the final steps. We are happy you enjoyed the workshop. The Silver Works Team X

Fun!

We booked this without having experience in jewelry making and had a fabulous time. They explained every step in detail, we did 90% of the work and we came away with a cool ring. We would highly recommend this for anyone.

An awesome experience!

Jill_M, May 2026
My sister and I wanted to have experiences while in Dublin, so we signed up for this class. It was a small group of fun and like minded people, and the instructors, especially Gabriela who helped me a lot, were so kind and great coaches. It was a perfect mix of hands on with the finer details being completed by the instructors. We have received many compliments on our rings since we returned home. There is no need to worry if you don’t consider yourself an artist because I’m not and with all the support I received my ring turned out great!

Response from Host, May 2026

Hello Jill, Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! We’re so happy you and your sister chose to spend part of your Dublin trip with us and that the workshop became such a memorable experience for you both. We absolutely love hearing that you’ve received compliments on your rings since returning home. Thank you again for the wonderful recommendation. Warm regards, The Silver Works Team X
