Tube Setting Faceted Stones [Workshop]

Tube settings are a practical and easy way to set small, faceted stones. In this workshop you will use heavy walled tubing to create settings for small, faceted stones, learn how to properly cut a seat, and choose the correct size and type of burs. After setting a few practice stones, you’ll  fabricate a simple sterling silver ring mounting and set a 3mm CZ stone. Students should have prior torch soldering experience. Supplies included.
