In this intermediate jewelry class, participants will create a distinctive statement ring using sterling silver, fine silver and optional argentium and gold accents. The project emphasizes building a decorative band focusing on texture, pattern and  dimension. Skill strengthening will be in stone setting and embellishment, as well as learning to balance precision with creativity and the artist’s voice.  Mixed metals may be used to enhance the aesthetic of this project adding contrast and depth. This class is designed for the intermediate student seeking both technical growth and the opportunity to craft a highly personal statement piece.
