PRONG SETTING A CABOCHONSunday, February 22, 9 AM to 12 PM
In the Lapidary Shop – Instructor Jette Sorensen
Learn to set a cabochon with prongs by making and fusing a frame, measuring and cutting prongs, and soldering them onto the frame. Create a bail and solder it onto the frame. Secure the cabochon with the prongs and go home with a new pendant.
The silver used is Argentium, a type of sterling silver with a higher fine-silver content. It tarnishes very slowly compared to sterling and offers a few other benefits.
Bring:
• Butane torch (Creme Brulé torch),
• Jewelry needle files,
• Jewelry flat nose pliers,
• Jewelry round nose pliers
Safety Notes: Please wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. Long hair should be tied back away from your face. Refrain from wearing long dangling jewelry and loose long sleeves.
The workshop fee is $100.00, including silver and a Drusy cabochon, payable in advance.
The workshop is limited to 4 members.
