Bezel Setting Rings

Stone setting is an important part of your skill set and bezel setting is the best technique to learn first.

Leave class with a new ring your friends will definitely ask you about and the skills to measure, prepare, and set cabochon stones in a variety of metals.

A selection of stones will be available during class. From minimal to extra decorative designs, your creativity will be your guide!

All materials and tools are included. Rings will be constructed in sterling silver using natural polished stones.
