Top Bruges Craft Classes

I visited The Silver Hand in Bruges to make a ring for my 40th birthday, and the whole experience was truly wonderful. The moment we stepped inside, the décor set the mood — beautifully curated, calm, and full of character. Everywhere you looked, there were inspiring pieces and so many creative options for designing your own ring, each one sparking new ideas.Richard is such a kind, gentle and steady man. He listened to our chit‑chat, asked thoughtful and caring questions, and guided us through every step with warmth, patience immense skill and genuine enthusiasm. He explained all the different techniques and possibilities without ever overwhelming us, helping us choose what felt right and what we loved most. His guidance made the whole process feel relaxed, creative and deeply personal. Something went "wrong"? All fixable or just part of the process to embrace.And I have to mention Pappy, his lovely dog — such a sweet companion who added an extra layer of charm to the studio. His presence made the space feel even more welcoming.Highly recommended. A memorable experience with genuinely lovely souls in a truly beautiful setting.

Really great experience. Highly recommend. Making something special from beginning to end is memorable and you have a ring that you will always remember making.

It was a fantastic experience. Richard, is really professional and friendly. The experience lasted over 2.5 hours, no pressure. Beautiful shop! A perfect gift for a couple :)

What a great, one-of-a-kind experience! Engaging and fun. An experience and a souvenir. Totally worth it.

Fantastic 2 and a half hours! We made our rings In a group of 4 couples. It was a fantastic experience and we now have 2 rings completely unique to us. The business owner was brilliant, engaging and friendly, he helped us create the vision we wanted!We will definitely be back!

It was a pleasant workshop. We got a very good explanation of what to do and asking something was always answered with a smile. The silver ring we made is a truly unique showpiece! Thank you to Richard for assisting us so well! We are already a customer and will definitely come back!

This was so much fun and we came home with an amazing personal souvenir of Brugge. We actually hand crafted our own rings from a piece of silver to the finished product!

My daughter Alana and I came to make our silver rings on Friday 22nd August which was Alana’s 21st birthday 😊 We both had such a fabulous time, Andrew was a great host and made it so much fun. We were joined by 6 others and it was such a lovely group to be a part of. I would highly recommend this to everyone xXx

This was a fantastic activity. Richard, the host, was personable and made everyone feel relaxed from the start. The experience lasted over 2.5 hours, but the time flew by because you are busy the whole time. We would highly recommend this experience.

Richard was so friendly and took time to explain everything as we went along. I am really pleased with my final ring, uniquely me! Thank you.

It was an unforgettable experience! The enthusiasm of Richard combined with the relaxed atmosphere and our conversations with the other 2 visitors in one word great! Beautiful rings made that will always remind us of Bruges and the Silver Hand. Erik and Mieke

My girlfriend and I had the best time making our ring with Richard. He's the perfect combination between kind, entertaining, interesting, and professional.Throughout the workshop you're guided as what to do, but how you do it is up to you. There's so many different choices to make (size, thickness, inside and outside of the ring, polished or not,...).I was mostly surprised about how much we were able/allowed to do. Richard only took over twice, but all the rest was up to us. As a local, I'd definitely recommend this for friends and family but as a tourist it's also a great activity.

It was amazing. Rik takes his time to explain and show everything. He explains step by step and the vibe is simply very enjoyable.We love our rings ❤️

The workshop was a lot of fun! In the end we all made a very nice ring! But above all Richard and has contributed with his likeable friendly nature to the successful 2.5 hours. Thank you very much, Richard!

Super nice workshop and a beautiful silver ring to show off. Richard makes it a top experience. Top idea if you are in Bruges but also worth driving there.

Was a lot of fun to do! I went home with a beautiful ring that I got to make myself.Thank you very much again! I definitely recommend it to everyone!
