Create a beautiful collection of handcrafted sterling silver stacking rings while expanding your silversmithing skills in a fun, supportive environment.
In this beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll design and fabricate three to four unique stacking rings, each with its own texture and character. One of your rings will feature a genuine gemstone set in a pre-fabricated sterling silver bezel cup, giving you the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of stone setting without the more advanced process of bezel fabrication.
Throughout the class, you’ll gain hands-on experience with essential silversmithing techniques, including soldering, texturing, polishing, and bezel stone setting. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave wearing a beautiful stack of handcrafted rings and feeling more confident at the jeweler’s bench.
Whether you’re continuing your metalsmithing journey or simply looking for a creative day in the studio, this workshop offers the perfect balance of skill-building and artistic expression.
