Description

Creating a Bezel Setting – The Wax Process

Learn a quick and simple way to create neat and clean bezel setting using the wax process. This can be a time consuming process when trying to create neat, clean and even bezel settings but after this course you will be able to repeatedly produce very tidy results.

We spend 3hrs practicing and repeating the technique of creating a clean bezel and attaching it to a simple ring band. We encourage you to get one or two of your designs cast and return for the ‘Creating a Bezel Setting – The Metal Finishing Process’ course to learn how to set the stone.

• Bring your own cabochons, over 5mm is recommended for learning this technique.
• The introduction to stone setting course is required before attempting this course as a little experience is necessary
• Stones and metal casting not included in price

(Note this course is the wax process only, the metal finishing is a separate 3hr course)
