Bezel set ring workshop - Friday 13th May 2022 - 10am-2:30pm

In this class you will create a beautiful sterling silver ring set with a cabochon stone of your choice (from a selection). You will start by being shown how to create a bezel that perfectly fits your stone and will look at a variety of design possibilites. You will then learn how to cut, solder, file, burnish and polish your final piece. This class is an ideal step on from my stacking rings or bangle classes but can also be booked as a stand alone for complete beginners. Ideal for those who are interested in learning the first stages of setting stones into their jewellery designs. All materials will be provided on the day.

Workshop 13/5/22

Zoe is a friend of my daughter Helen, they met at art college, so it was on Helen’s suggestion that I choose one of Zoe’s workshops as my Mother’s Day present from her and my other daughter and son. And what a wonderful present! Not only did I have one of the most enjoyable and interesting days in a long while, but I got to make a lovely bezel set ring which I am very proud of! As the other reviewers say, Zoe is a great teacher and explained every stage in detail, helping us when we needed it and generally encouraging us every step of the way. We had drinks and snacks on hand too. Perfect! I would love to do another workshop at some point and cannot praise Zoe highly enough.

Fantastic experience

We (Mum, Sister and I) we’re bought this workshop class as a present and looked forward to it in equal measures of excitement and impending doom that we wouldn’t be able to create a wearable ring! As soon as we arrived we felt immediately at ease. Zoe explained everything so clearly, breaking the steps down into little tasks. She demonstrated what we needed to do then gave us the time and support to complete everything ourselves. She was on hand every step of the way to give one to one support and guidance. The day was simply fantastic, from the room with individually stocked work benches to Zoe’s expert knowledge and skills and even the refreshments and well stocked snack trolley! We left the day with three beautiful bezel set rings that we are so proud to have created - an absolutely amazing experience, thank you Zoe.

Absolutely amazing!

I am writing this review on the same day as the class because I enjoyed it so much and want to share it. Zoe is so talented and highly skilled, but most importantly is a excellent teacher. She explained things so clearly and made sure to spend 1:1 time with everyone in the class to ensure they were comfortable, could ask questions and made the best ring they could. The course is in a lovely setting too - easy to find, lots of parking, fab decor, high quality materials and tools, and everything was laid out for us before we arrived. Zoe and her team has thought of everything including a well stocked snack tray and regular tea breaks if needed. Highly recommend. There is a reason these courses sell out so quickly.
