In this week's episode of the Jewellers Academy podcast, Jess and jeweller Kelly Twigg dive into the often underappreciated craft of polishing and finishing jewellery. Drawing on Kelly's experience from the Diploma in Silver Jewellery, they explore the techniques, tools, and creative choices that bring a piece to life.

You'll learn why quality tools matter, how different finishes influence the final look, and what safety measures are crucial in your workspace. Whether you're refining your skills or just getting started, this episode offers practical insights and inspiration to enhance your jewellery-making journey.
