Level: Intermediate. You should be confident with soldering silver jewellery. Experience of working with a pendant motor would be useful.

Join us for an Introduction to Cast Settings to understand how incorporating pre-cast rub over settings can revolutionise your jewellery making. There can be many advantages to incorporating cast settings in your jewellery the biggest ones being the ability to realise your designs more efficiently and affordably! This course will help you understand the full variety of setting options available to you as a jeweller – and how to identify where cast settings can provide you with an advantage.

In this course we aim to clarify the entire process of working with cast setting in a simple and accessible way with minimal tools, enabling you to go away to continue setting in your own workshop. You will learn to set in brass pre-cast settings, by setting different-sized, calibrated cubic zirconia stones. With guidance from your tutor, you will learn how to set different shapes of stone using hand tools and the pendant motor.
