SPECIALITY SKILLS - STONE SETTING

  • Vanilla Ink The Smiddy Old Market Place Banff, Scotland, United Kingdom (map)

In this session, we are introduced to stone setting. We are lucky enough to be led by a master setter down in Glasgow, so we definitely know a thing or two on this subject! But we also fully believe in teaching mount making alongside stone setting, which is why we find that the techniques in this session are spread across two weeks each, to give enough time to learn and understand alongside the actual making and setting. You’ll end up with some lovely jewellery as you step into the world of proper, old-school goldsmithing.

Because things now are far more structured, you can now plan ahead and choose when and how you’d like to learn jewellery making. Once you have completed this six week run, you have plenty of choice! You can choose to focus on Core Jewellery Skills of Brooches, Rings, and Bangles/Bracelets [Necklaces will run parallel with our Intro to Surface Patterns session and Rings runs alongside this one, with both returning in 2026], or return for more Speciality Skills of Casting and Alternative Materials. Or if you fancy just relaxing and playing around at your own pace, we offer Freestyle Sessions.

This is a 6 week class running once a week.
