News & Announcements

I really enjoyed myself at the DIY Jewellery Corner Event. My background is Fashion Design for the past 20+ years and I love jewellery and designing jewellery. Mark did exceptional job teaching me and my friend Jennifer on how to properly mount a gemstone in a setting finding. He taught many techniques and tools used to mounting. Mark was very informative and funny.  The class was fun to attend. So my overall experience,  it was a Great Class to take.Cheers Grace“DIY Jewellery Corner” Saturday May 18thTwo-hour sessionFrom 2:00pm to 4:00pmHURRY! -- JUST A FEW SEATS LEFTIn our showroomCambridge Industrial Centre228–13986 Cambie RoadRichmond, B.C.You bring your stones; we’ll help you pick out the perfect setting!Get one-on-one help and instruction in setting your stone by our stone setting pro, master metalsmith, author and renowned instructor Mark Lareau.DIY Jewellery Corner is FREE!(Only caveat is that you do have to buy the settings from us!)Now is the time to get your stones incorporated into beautiful pieces of jewellery that you designed and set yourself!This session will also include soldering demos showcasing our Jeweller Settings findings.This two-hour session is limited to six people.Spaces are limited so sign up now!Call 604-998-7989 for more info or to reserve your spot!You can also sign up using our website contact form

The creativity this time was off the charts!There was, as always, some discussion about stone setting techniques in general.Almost immediately, the students went off onto a few unexpected tangents. Using parts in unusual (and unintended) ways student turned their loose drilled pearls and some chain into some stunning statement pieces. Modifying and customizing some pieces by soldering earring post basket settings onto a ring to convert it from being designed for a cabochon into one perfect for a great cut stone.Another great customization was using the same basket setting soldered onto one of our tube beads to create a gorgeous centerpiece.One of the most fun aspects of Jewelry Corner is seeing all the ways people use our products, especially when they're being used in such unexpected, creative ways!Stay tuned for more dates coming soon!Share your thoughts and ideas directly in the comments. This may help someone else with their own jewellery projects.
