You will finish the ring on the second workshop day of November 22nd by adding a bezel cup and setting the gemstone.*You will have a choice of bronze or brass for the cast ring--see kit options under the description. The materials kit fee must be paid to the instructor on the first workshop day via Venmo, CASH, or credit card.VERY IMPORTANT! Due to the high cost of silver from the metals market fluctuation in 2026, if you want to have your ring in sterling silver it is imperative to carve out the majority of the bulk from the backside of the ring to reduce costs, or make a smaller and less heavy ring. If you want to make a huge piece, you must be willing and able to prepay the instructor before she sends them out to the caster.DAY ONE - October 11th from 9:30AM-4:30PMIn the first class, students will learn to carve a ring from wax and quickly get to work. Once our design is finished at the end of class we will send the rings out to a caster and then receive them in time for the second class.Students will choose one gemstone to set in the ring. PLEASE BRING A SKETCHBOOK AND PENCIL.DAY TWO - November 22nd from 9:30AM-4:30PMIn the second class, you will learn how to clean up a casting in metal, measure a stone for creating a bezel cup, solder sterling silver bezel cup to your ring, learn the steps of filing, sanding and polishing your ring, and then set your stone.Non-members: $225 / Members: $18012-hour workshop fee does not include materials.
