Creative Rings
A few of the stunning, detailed pieces completed by students this year. These projects combine all skills learned in Jewelry in the first term: sweat soldering, piercing, ringmaking, and sanding/polishing.
Creative rings
A selection of impressive rings built by Junior and Senior Jewelry students: twisted, textured, wire “waves”, and more complex pierced/cut rings.
self-directed jewelry projects
Forged copper ring by L.S., and wire/bead sculpture by K.G.!
all in the family…
J.L. in Grade 12 re-cast these beautiful matching gold pendants from a family heirloom: one for herself, her sister, and her mom. A great example of how significant & timeless jewelry-making can be. Great work, and good luck on your welding ACE-IT program, J.L.!
Twig Ring
Grade 12 student J.L. crafted this gorgeous sterling silver twig ring as a self-directed project. Leaf shape was cut out of sheet metal, branches and vines cut and soldered out of wire. Incredible work!
Textured/Twisted rings
Gorgeous braided copper wire rings by A.F. and K.L. in Grade 10, and textured ring (with liver of sulfur to darken the symbols) by J.D. in Grade 9. Nice work!
Braided copper wire ring
Excellent, creative work by J.P. in Grade 10. This was a bonus project for our Intro to Tech class.
Lost wax rings
Fantastic work by L.W., G.S., B.L., and S.G. in Senior Jewelry: owl ring in sterling, others in brass.
Awesome castings
T.M. in Grade 11 casts a brass ring that coincidentally looks like our first project, W.H. in Grade 12 makes a sterling set of skulls, L.B. in Grade 12 hand carved wax to cast the small brass knuckle pendant, and M.F. cast an epic wolf ring…excellent work!
