Decadent Dessert Spoons

Class Description

Taught by BRIAN WEISSMAN.

A spoon is so matter of fact in most of our everyday lives that it is rarely considered by the user. Here we are going to take a closer look at this ubiquitous utensil and heighten its attributes by designing it specifically for desserts. Ice cream, pudding, custards, fruit cobblers and more! Now you can create flatware that is perfect for your sweetest indulgence. 

In this 4 session course you will learn how to make your very own silver dessert spoon.  Two different approaches will be taught. We will begin with designing the basic shape and applying one method by sawing the piece from heavy sheet metal, and the other by forging square stock. Through these basic introductions to simple forming and forging a spoon will be created. Design embellishments such as carving with files and stamping as well as finishing and polishing will be covered.

These silver utensils will be useful for a lifetime.  If you enjoy making as much as you enjoy eating, this workshop is for you.  And if you are game, we will take our new spoons out for a trial run at our local ice cream shop after the class ends!

Open to all levels. Class size 4 – 12 students.

All students receive a 50% discount on hourly bench rentals throughout the duration of their course.
