Prong settings are such a useful and beautiful way to set gemstones and cabochons, they are safe, secure and prevent obscuring the beauty of the gem you are setting. Such simplicity in a setting means that more precision is needed, this workshop will help you achieve that precision and help you with strategies to achieve the perfect prongs for your gems, whether creating a ring, pendant, or connector.

This workshop will cover creating single prongs, double prongs, how to space prongs and how to navigate different shape gemstones. We will use these techniques to create a ring, complete with a woven shank and a simple cabochon pendant.

·      0.4mm wire

·      0.8mm wire
