Stone Setting Class

Description

I am a largely self taught Jeweller of 17 years experience. I studied formally in Australia - Sydney. at Enmore Tafe. Object and Jewellery Design. Over that period I've gained skills that I'd now like to share with others. One of these being stone setting. I am comfortable teaching the following stone setting techniques: Bezel/Tube/Flush/ Basic Prong/cage and Tension setting. I will demonstrate how to make the setting, cut the seat and set the stone, if you book a full day we will have time to make a piece of jewellery, or you may wish to just focus on as many techniques as possible and not worry about coming away with a finished piece if you book a one to one with me what we do and how the class is structured can be led by you. If you want to book a group booking, we will focus on one maybe two types of stone setting in the day. (8hours). Price for group booking is minimum of 3 students, any extra students is £100 each. Please contact me via the message the tutor button if this is of interest. All classes come with free instructions, on what was taught in class. All Tools and materials supplied.

I've been making Jewellery since childhood, but the hobby was re-ignited in 2006 (when i was 33) after losing my dad. The process really helped me handle and learn to live with my grief. Since then i've been to full time Jewellery School and been making Silver jewellery and adding to my technical reportoire ever since. In addition to jewellery I taught English as a second Language for three years in South Korea, i've run a few classes in the UK and abroad but I really want to start offering regular workshops and day classes.
