Your questions answered
Do you have a payment plan?
Yes there is a 10 month payment plan available for the Masterclass bundle to help you spread the cost.
Are there lots of additional tools and materials?
If you are an advanced jeweller I think you will have 99% of the tools already. You can see the list of tools and materials required for the Decorative Collets master class here
What level of jewellery making do I need to be in order to take these masterclasses?
The Masterclasses are designed as the perfect follow-on from the Advanced Jewellery Diploma, our year 3 Diploma course.
It is not a requirement that you have completed the Advanced Diploma but your skills must be at an equivalent or higher level in order to make these masterclass projects.
Decorative Collets
To enrol in Decorative Collets you must be a confident collet setter of shaped stones including round, oval and pear shaped. This course focusses on creating the decorative collets and while it does cover how to collet set a hexagon stone, it does not cover skills learn in previous Diploma courses.
Fishtail Setting
To enrol in Fishtail Setting you must have experience and some confidence with pave setting.
Tiara Wedding Ring
This is the most complex of the masterclass projects. You must be confident with claw setting, complex soldering (multiple solder joins in one piece) and working with magnification. You should already be able to confidently make a three claw ring from scratch.
Can I purchase the masterclasses separately?
Yes. Each masterclass is currently priced at £399 or you can save by getting the three masterclass bundle, including with a 10 month payment play
