This is a fun activity in Hatton Garden, London
In this stone setting jewellery workshop in London, you’ll learn the distinctive Victorian/Georgian cut-down style -- a historic technique first developed during the Georgian era and now seeing a resurgence! Through demonstration and guided practice, you’ll be supported in building the skills and confidence to apply this method in your own work.
You don’t need to have mastered stone setting before joining. With clear guidance throughout the day, you’ll be able to follow each step and develop your technique in a focused, supportive environment.
**What to expect:**
- An introduction to the Victorian/Georgian cut-down setting style using sample pieces.
- Working with a pre-cast sterling silver ring and brilliant-cut stone.
- Demonstrations covering each stage of the setting process.
- Using specialist tools such as scorpers and pendant motors.
- Step-by-step guidance as you shape and prepare your setting.
- Hands-on making with individual support throughout.
- Developing transferable stone-setting skills.
- Completing your own finished sterling silver ring in the traditional cut-down style.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a beautifully set ring and a solid understanding of this classic technique, along with skills you can carry into future jewellery projects.
