Spend a day in the workshop learning to create 3 unique sterling silver stacking rings,  2 with gemstones and one plain (textured or polished)! Each ring will be made from a different shape of wire: square, twisted, or half-round. Using bezel and basket/prong setting techniques, students will learn to set a 3 mm gemstone into each ring. Since the stone setting is best practiced on synthetic and lab-created gems, participants can choose from cubic zirconia and synthetic sapphire, ruby, or emerald. These one-of-a-kind rings can be worn as solitaires or stacks. Customize them all for yourself or create them as gifts for your loved ones!

In this engaging class designed for beginners, you'll immerse into the art of silversmithing and emerge with two unique sets of earrings. One set features delicately textured sterling silver with a pop of copper, while the other boasts the mesmerizing beauty of fold-formed, patina-coated copper. Prepare to be amazed by how effortlessly these feather-light earrings adorn your ears with style and grace.

Enjoy a day in the studio fabricating your West Coast-inspired stacking rings. Our class allows you to create your own one-of-a-kind mountain ring, and 2 square wire rings with a pine needle texture. Create unique textures on each ring with different techniques using several kinds of burrs on the flex shaft. This class will teach you the fundamentals of silversmithing, such as soldering, ring sizing, texturing and more, with a fun twist!"
