Set in Stone
This class is perfect for complete beginners and a great Skill Stacker session for those with some jewellery-making experience who want to build a strong foundation in bezel setting techniques.
Join tutor Fabio for a focused 5-hour workshop where you’ll learn the essential skills needed to create a cabochon gemstone ring in sterling silver. You’ll begin by choosing your favourite from our selection of stones – such as chrysocolla, rutilated quartz, carnelian, labradorite, tiger’s eye, moonstone, or larimar.
Guided step-by-step, you’ll shape and solder your ring band, form and fit your bezel setting, and master the process of securely setting your stone. Along the way, Fabio will share expert tips, tricks, and best practices to help you develop precision, confidence, and good technique – giving you skills you can build on for future projects.
By the end of the class, you’ll finish with a beautifully handcrafted sterling silver ring that shows off your new bezel setting skills.
Who can Join: This is a Beginner-Level class delivering focus specific skills, suitable for Adults 18+ of all skill levels. Good hand-eye coordination and the ability to follow safety instructions are essential.
