Stone Setting Comprehensive

5-DAY WORKSHOP

This intensive five-day workshop includes stone setting tips and techniques you won't learn anywhere else.

In addition, an introduction to bead setting techniques covers many contemporary stone setting designs and techniques. This class places special emphasis on bur control, NSK Emax techniques, graver sharpening, and use so students leave with a comprehensive understanding and foundation for effective stone setting.

Students practice setting both simulated diamonds and fragile colored stones in many setting styles.
