Join me June 21st 10am -5pm for Kitchen Table Silversmithing- the Bling Ring edition!

Ready to take your silversmithing skills higher? In this workshop class, we will create a bezel set statement ring. I will have an assortment of fabulous boro glass cabs made specifically for this class by local glass artist Ryan Pleso.
You must bring a butane micro torch, fuel, firebrick, jewelers files and pliers for this class. Additional tools that you may wish to bring are- texturing hammers, rawhide mallet, burnishers, decorative/letter metal stamps, ring mandrel and metal shears. Some shared tools will be available for use in class.
A class kit containing silver sheet, solder, bezel wire and ring shank/pattern wire is included in the class fee. Bench incidentals like finishing supplies and flux are included in the class kit. Additional wire options will be available for purchase in class for those wishing to try more advanced techniques.
