Gemstone Ring Workshop - Victoria

Gemstone Rings Workshop

Create an adorable sterling silver gemstone ring in this hands-on, beginner-friendly workshop. You’ll work with fine sterling silver wire to form, solder, bezel set a stone of your choice, and learn the foundational techniques of traditional silversmithing along the way.

Throughout the workshop, you’ll be guided step by step in a relaxed, supportive setting. No prior experience is required — just curiosity and a willingness to work with your hands.

You'll select from a rotating collection of eight stunning gemstones - each one a 5 mm cabochon. Our selection may vary based on availability, ensuring you always have a unique mix to pick from.

We use 5 mm bezel cups, so the gemstones are calibrated to fit perfectly. Because of this, personal stones or beachglass typically won't fit. But don't worry - you'll have a beautiful, unique selection ready to choose from!

All materials, tools, and instruction are included.
