Stone Setting

Stone-set seaglass shark!

Tongue twister of the year for sure, but look at this thing! A keen and creative Grade 9 student wanted to try their hand at stone setting, and did their first ever bezel setting with a piece of sea glass. They cut out the shark profile by hand as well out of sterling silver. Awesome work, F!

Self-Directed Jewelry 9/10 Projects

These students went above and beyond their set projects and challenged themselves to try new skills. Both sets of earrings were hand-cut with a jewellers’ saw (studs soldered onto the back). Beach stone pendants were chosen by students, and they designed their prong backing to hold the stone.

Incredible work, folks!

Cheryl Jacobs, a local professional jeweller and post-secondary instructor, came in and shared some incredible skills with our students in Spring 2018. Featured here are several stone-setting projects done by Senior Jewelry students – beautiful work!
