If you love a little sparkle and want to add tube setting to your jewellery skill repertoire, this is the perfect workshop!
During this day workshop, you will have the opportunity to personally handcraft a set of silver stacking rings, highlighted with a tube-set gemstone. Tube setting is an ideal beginner's method of setting round faceted gemstones.
The first part of the workshop will walk you through the process of making your own set of 3 stacking rings while exploring different surface finishes and textures that can be added to reflect your own personal style. This will be followed by an introduction and hands-on practise of how to tube set a round faceted gemstone. After getting a good grasp of the setting technique, you will move on to incorporating a tube setting to 1 of your stacking rings.
Skills taught:
  • Ring sizing & shaping
  • Soldering
  • Measuring and selecting gemstones
  • Using a pendant drill and setting burrs
  • Seating faceted stones
  • Burnishing
  • Sawing
  • Filing
