FAQs

Is it possible to make the ring in another material, such as gold?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to make the rings in gold. Gold is very particular and difficult to work with. It requires advanced skills. Plus, it's very, very expensive. For a first jewelry project, your ring may not be perfect. Therefore it is risky and expensive to make a first project using gold. However, it is possible to make your ring in silver or brass in the workshop and then have it molded and cast in the material of your choice. If this option interests you, I can help you achieve it. Contact us for more information.

Can I make the ring from sketches or my design ideas?

During the class, you'll make a ring from a silver or brass wire. You can pick from a selection of various wire shapes (round, half-round, square, triangle, flat band, etc.) and size. You can come with ideas of designs. We'll try to integrate as much as possible your design ideas in your project. Some designs however will be impossible to do because it's too complicated or the technique is not applicable in a 3 hour class.

Is it possible to integrate stones to my ring?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to integrate stones on your ring. The integration of stones, or setting, requires advanced skills. For a first jewelry project, the integration of stones is too complex.

Do you do private workshops?

Yes, it is possible to book a private workshop. A $40 fee applies. Contact us to see our availability.
