Small classes, real tools, and a finished piece you take home the same day. No experience needed — we’ve taught people who had never held a saw before lunch.
Sessions run on weekends and some weekday evenings. Tell us which one you want and we’ll send the next available dates.
Learn to read a stone, plan a cut, and run the trim saw safely. You'll take a rough rock down to a slab and start your first preform.
The full path from preform to a shine you can see your face in. This is the class people come back for — most leave with a finished cabochon.
Turn a finished stone into something wearable. Bezel and prong fundamentals, working in silver, and how to build a setting around a stone that isn't perfectly round.
Bring a stone that matters to you. Across two sessions we cut it, shape it, polish it, and set it into a piece you leave wearing.
No equipment, no experience, no idea what a cabochon is — none of it matters. Wear something you don’t mind getting a little rock dust on, and bring your curiosity.
