Description:
The most versatile stone setting techniques are often shrouded in mystery. Lift back the curtain and learn the techniques of bead setting, pave' and gypsy setting faceted and cabochon cut stones. Unlike many settings which need to be constructed and soldered, these styles of setting require no torch skills and only basic familiarity with jewelry tools like the drill and flex shaft. From tool prep to setting, you will learn the steps needed to set stones on nearly any type of metal jewelry. The workshop will cover how to set stones in four different techniques; Bead, Box, Flush and Nicked.
