Make your own rings – The Ringsmiths

Hands-on ring-making workshops using the traditional bench skills — carving, filing, soldering and casting — so you leave wearing the thing you made. Two sites: 61 Tower Bridge Road SE1 4TL and Unit 2.07–2.08 Oxo Tower Wharf, Barge House Street SE1 9PH. Popular for couples making their own wedding bands. Book through the timetable on the site, or call 020 3659 6296 (Tower Bridge) / 020 4547 3947 (Oxo). At-home ring design kits too, if you'd rather not come in.
