City Lit provides most of the basic tools and equipment you will need for jewellery-making, such as base metals, chemicals and sundries. However there are some items you need to buy for this course, such as saw blades, emerypaper, two burrs, two to three stones and some silver wire, sheet and tube. The cost will be around £15 depending on your choice of stones. We would recommend that you bring your own needle files if possible. Additionally any precious metals and stones for your specific projects must be provided by you.
