Service Description

1 day workshop, 6 hours Join us at the Old Barn Workshop in Frensham, Surrey for a full-day Cabochon Stone Setting workshop. This one-day course is ideal for beginners and those with some jewellery-making experience looking to develop or refresh their bezel setting skills. You’ll learn to create a secure bezel setting for a cabochon gemstone and turn it into a finished piece of silver jewellery. With expert step-by-step guidance, you’ll explore essential techniques including soldering, forming, mounting, and polishing. The workshop is relaxed and fully supported, with access to professional tools, materials, and plenty of one-to-one help. While beginners will build strong foundational skills, more experienced students are encouraged to try creative settings or experiment with unusual stone shapes. Silver and a selection of gemstones are included. You're also welcome to bring your own stones, but please check with the tutor in advance to ensure they're suitable. Whether you're looking to learn new techniques or refine your jewellery-making skills, this full-day workshop is a perfect opportunity to explore stone setting in a welcoming and inspiring environment.
