Jewellery

Kiln Crafts stocks a complete range of professional jewellery making tools for UK silversmiths, goldsmiths, enamellers and jewellery studios. From heavy-duty rolling mills and jeweller's benches to micro welders, polishing machines and enamelling kilns, our bench is built around Durston — the British-made standard in jewellery workshop equipment — alongside Aquaflame welding and Kilncare enamelling kilns. Everything ships with free UK delivery and support from a team that works with this kit every day.

Jeweller's benches & workbenches

A solid, well-lit bench is the foundation of any jewellery workshop. Our Durston benches range from compact setups to full professional stations: the Durston Superior Jeweller's Bench and Superior Double Jeweller's Workbench for busy studios, the height-adjustable Adjustable Electric Work Bench, plus the Setters Bench, Watchmaker's Bench and the rugged Titan Workbench. Each is designed around the traditional jeweller's pin and catch-tray layout to keep filings and findings contained.

Rolling mills

Rolling mills let you reduce, sheet and pattern precious metal in the workshop rather than buying every gauge ready-made. Durston is the most trusted name in the field, and we carry the full line — from the popular Agile C110 and Olivia C130 through to double-action mills such as the DRM 130 Double Rolling Mill and the Molly C165. Browse every model on the dedicated rolling mills collection to compare roller widths and gear options.

Cutting & shearing

For clean, accurate cuts in sheet metal, a bench guillotine saves hours over hand shears. We stock the Durston 6″ Guillotine Shear, the larger 12″ Guillotine Shear, and the heavy-duty Jewellers Guillotine for repeatable, straight-edged cuts.

Polishing & finishing

Finishing is where a piece earns its shine. Our Durston polishing and lapping range covers the Pro Single and Pro Double Polishing Machine, the Floor-Standing Airmax 2200 Polishing Machine with integrated extraction, and the Standard and Super Lapping Machines for flat, even surfaces.

Soldering & welding

For joining, repairs and intricate work, the Aquaflame Micro Welder Model 500, Model 800 and Model 1200 deliver a precise flame from a compact, self-contained unit — well suited to studios without a piped gas supply.

Magnification

Fine setting and inspection work calls for proper magnification. The Durston Jewellers Microscope and Professional Jewellers Microscope give a clear, stable view for stone setting, engraving and quality checks.

Enamelling kilns

If your work extends into enamelling, the Kilncare EN2 and EN3 Enamelling Kilns are purpose-built for small-scale enamel firing. For a wider choice of small kilns suited to enamel and jewellery work, see our jewellery kilns collection.

Choosing the right jewellery tools

If you're equipping a workshop from scratch, start with the three tools you'll use every day: a sturdy bench, a rolling mill sized to the widest sheet you expect to make, and reliable cutting. Build out polishing, soldering and magnification as your work demands. For a fuller walk-through of the essentials, read our guide to the metalworking tools every jewellery maker needs.

Common questions about jewellery making tools

What tools do I need to start making jewellery? A jeweller's bench, basic hand tools, a way to cut and shape sheet metal (shears or a guillotine), and a heat source for soldering. A rolling mill and polishing machine follow as your work grows.

What size rolling mill should I buy? Match the roller width to the widest sheet you plan to make. Narrower mills (around 100–110mm) suit most hobby and small-studio work; wider mills give more flexibility for larger pieces.

Are Durston tools good quality? Durston is a British manufacturer widely regarded as the standard for jewellery rolling mills and workshop equipment, which is why we build our jewellery range around them.

Do I need a special kiln for enamelling? Yes — enamelling uses dedicated small kilns such as the Kilncare EN2 and EN3 that reach and hold enamelling temperatures quickly. See our jewellery kilns collection for options.
