Silversmithing Workshop: Gemstone Ring

Craft your own gemstone ring

Join our instructor, Charlene Hall, for a fun and hands-on one-day workshop where you’ll learn to make your very own gemstone ring!

In this 4-hour class, you’ll be guided through the process of measuring and sizing your ring, texturing and shaping the metal, and using a torch to solder and anneal. You’ll also get to play with hammers and mandrels to create a ring that fits perfectly and reflects your style.

You’ll learn how to solder a bezel and securely set a gemstone. A selection of 4mm stones is included—choose from a variety of beautiful options!

If you’ve taken our Stacking Ring Workshop, this gemstone ring is the perfect addition to your set! The photos show how beautifully it pairs with the stacking rings—but in this class, you’ll be making one silver ring with a gemstone.

No previous experience is needed—just come ready to explore the art of traditional silversmithing!

All tools and materials are included in the price, and of course, you’ll take home the ring you create!
