Course Description

Turn simple metal and stones into jewellery you are proud to wear—or sell. This free online course is designed for makers who want practical, studio-ready skills and the confidence to move from curiosity to crafted results. You will explore the full creative journey: translating ideas into clean drawings and stone renders, shaping and forming metal with intention, and developing the control needed to build pieces that look refined, feel comfortable, and last.

As you progress, you will strengthen the essentials that matter in professional making: accurate cutting and saw piercing, deliberate texturing, neat soldering, and clean finishing. The course focuses on understanding what to do and why it works, helping you troubleshoot common issues such as alignment, heat control, fit, and surface cleanup. You will also see how good preparation and smart tool choices make work smoother and safer, especially when moving from chunky statement elements to delicate details.

Stone setting is approached as a skill you can develop step by step. You will learn how different settings affect durability and aesthetics, and how to refine your results with careful shaping, tightening, and polishing. From bezel, flush, prong, and tube setting to creative approaches that combine structure and texture, you will build a clearer sense of how to select the right method for a design, protect your stones, and achieve a professional finish.

By the end, you will have a stronger workflow—from design to fabrication to final polish—and a practical foundation for future projects. Whether you want a new creative hobby, a portfolio boost, or a path toward craft-based work, this course supports your next step with techniques you can apply immediately at the bench.
