Craft your own silver jewelry with a skilled silversmith in Sidemen
Step into a hidden gem in Sidemen and experience traditional silversmithing in a way few travellers do. This isn't a touristy workshop – it's an intimate space where silversmithing has been passed down through generations. Led by Made, a master craftsman who learned the art from his father, you'll craft your own silver jewellery from scratch, just as artisans have for decades. Nestled near the iconic Yellow Bridge, this workshop lets you slow down and create something truly personal. From melting and shaping to polishing your unique piece, every step is hands-on – and Made and his friendly family will be there to guide you through it.

Meet your host

Made has been working with silver for over 40 years, and his love for the craft shines through in everything he does. His workshop, open for two decades, is more than just a place to create jewellery—it’s a family space where tradition and skill are passed down. After Covid, he brought his business home, allowing him to work closely with his wife and daughter. Together, they’ve made their jewellery-making classes feel warm and welcoming, like learning from old friends. Every piece made in his workshop carries generations of knowledge, and guests get to be part of that story.
