Sterling Silver Rings with round stone cabochon can usually be done in one day with 1 or 2 people. But for a deeper understanding regarding soldering, safety, using your jewellers saw & file effectively, adding textures, sweat soldering additional pieces to your ring and more, a second day is essential, especially with 2 people. If you already have some experience, please email me so we can discuss your options. 

Tuesday to Friday available from 10:30 to 4:30 with a 30 minutes lunch.
Most weekends are booked until February 2026, but there is still bookable times 
during the weekdays for December. January & February weekdays have lots of space. 
Metal and gems are at additional cost. Please email for more information. Studio is in Burnaby. 

For your first project you will learn to fabricate a silver ring with a round cabochon. All supplies, tools and materials are supplied with your registration except for silver and any stones. All silver used in this class must be quality sheet, wire and bezel. Please do not pre-buy from Amazon, Etsy etc. 

Many people have stones they would like to use, but for your first project its best to have a uniform shape within specific guidelines for your best chance of success. You can spread your jewellery wings on your second piece. 

We can look at all of your ideas and I can give you support to problem solve a tricky cabochon setting, understanding torches, gas, solder types and troubleshoot your soldering issues. We can keep things simple or branch out quite creatively, its up to you!
