If you are just starting out as a beginner working in a home studio, this workshop is for you! Join resident metalsmith **Francesca Watson** for three full days all about fabricating bezel settings from scratch. We'll learn how to craft custom bezel settings for cabochons from scratch, make a simple pendant and bail, and build an embellished ring. Along the way, we'll discuss the properties of sterling silver; why flux is important and which ones work best for silver; how to get a professional finish on your piece; and much more.
And as an added bonus, you'll get **30 days access to recordings of all demos** ... at no additional cost!
This workshop is part of our **beginner series** and offers essential foundational skills, whether you've never touched a torch or you’re taking your soldering and fabrication skills to the next level. ***Absolutely everything necessary*** to complete the projects is provided in this workshop – all tools, materials, and equipment! **Bring a pen and notebook for note-taking and eye magnification if required,** but otherwise just come and have fun!
