Let’s get creative: in this course, we will focus on fabricating unique prong and bezel settings, including the v prong and the stepped bezel. This course will cover both cabochon and faceted stones and is aimed at individuals who are comfortable soldering. 
Supply List
Stones, both faceted and cabbed of any shape, sheet metal (18ga is ideal for v-prongs, 20ga for the base constructions), and 14ga round silver wire strongly recommended. Some supplies for unique projects can be purchased as a group to reduce cost.
