In this fast-paced, hands-on workshop, you will dive straight into the foundational mechanics of utilizing pre-made sterling silver prong settings. We will demystify the specialized tools of the trade, teaching you how to select, handle, and utilize the correct pliers and setting instruments to achieve a secure, professional finish. Over the course of 1 to 2 hours, you will explore alternative tool options that fit any home studio setup, learn how to properly seat a stone so it sits perfectly level, and practice the precise physics of tightening prongs without scratching your metal or fracturing your gems. You will choose your own stone sizes and craft a pair of stud earrings and a pendant, with the flexibility to customize your project mix or even upgrade with additional pieces if time permits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Google Sans'; font-size: 16.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eWhat You Will Learn\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\" style=\"direction: ltr; unicode-bidi: embed; margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003eSetting Mechanics:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003e How to properly align, level, and seat faceted stones into pre-made prong settings.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003eTool Mastery:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003e The correct use of stone-setting pliers and tightening tools, plus accessible alternatives for your home studio.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003eTroubleshooting:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003e How to fix uneven stones and avoid common pitfalls like over-tightening or marring the silver.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold; font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003eProject Flexibility:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003e Techniques for working with various stone sizes and configuring different jewelry styles like studs and pendants.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Google Sans'; font-size: 16.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Google Sans'; font-size: 16.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eWhy Take This Class\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Google Sans Text'; font-size: 11.0pt;\"\u003eIf you have ever wanted to add brilliant, faceted gemstones to your jewelry designs but felt held back by complex setting techniques, this class is your perfect gateway.
