Beginner Bezel Setting Thursday 6-week Artist Series
Starts Thursday, September 17th (Thursday mornings from 10:00AM-1:00PM for six weeks.)
This course is a full overview of bezel settings, starting with simple bezels and progressing up to custom setting unusual shapes. The first half of the series is project based. We will start by making a pair of earrings using bezel cups and progress to custom bezel pendants. The second half of the series will be a self-designed project with instructor support. For that project a selection of stones will be available but students are also welcome to bring in small stones or objects from home. This is a beginner class, no prior metalsmithing experience is needed.
Materials are not included in the series price. The estimated materials fee is $40* and includes everything needed to complete the course, including your choice of stones. The materials kit can be purchased directly from the instructor with Venmo or cash at the first class.
*NOTE: Due to daily fluctuations in the cost of metal, the cost of materials is subject to change.
