The experienceNot a class you watch.
Not a class you watch.
A ring you make.
PLAI began as a Cambridge silversmithing studio. We open our bench to you for an evening — and you walk out having turned a raw strip of silver into something you'll wear for years.
- IReal metal, real tools
You saw, solder, hammer and file solid sterling silver on a jeweller's bench — the same craft, the same tools we use every day.
- IIOne smith, small groups
Never more than eight makers, always a working silversmith beside you. You're guided, not lectured.
- IIIYours forever, out the door
You leave the same evening wearing a ring you forged — sized to your finger, finished the way you like.

Where we make
Three ways to get to the bench
Come to our studio, catch a pop-up, or let us bring the whole workshop to your door. Same craft, wherever you are.
London
Regular pop-up evenings in central London. Same hands-on experience, same take-home ring — just closer to home for our London makers.

Makers
They came to make a ring. They left with a story.
“★★★★★We made each other's wedding bands here. Three hours, and now we wear something we forged with our own hands. Nothing store-bought comes close.
Emily & TomCambridge
“★★★★★Booked it for my sister's hen do. They brought the whole studio to our flat. Twelve of us, twelve rings, zero mess. Genuinely unforgettable.
PriyaLondon
“★★★★★I'm not a crafty person. I walked out with a ring I'd have happily paid triple for in a shop — because I made it. Book it.
