In this two day course students will explore the art of properly measuring, soldering and setting a hand-made basket mount for a faceted stone. Students may make any type of jewelry (i.e. earrings, ring,pendant) within the duration of this workshop-with the focus that at least one project will be completed to a high finish.
Students are encouraged to bring in a range of larger sized faceted
stones. These can be round, oval, square, triangular- any shape.
The goal is to work in larger style stones (esp. if this is your
first time creating something like this). Anything 8mm and over is
best to learn on, and odd shapes are encouraged! No cabochons for
this course, please.
