Embellished Rhodolite Ring – Estona Metalsmithing & Jewelry Making Tutorials

In this tutorial I was just playing around and having fun. I’ll show you how you can give a wider ring a nice fit, how you can add embellishments, how to combine silver and gold ánd how to set a stone by using a pre-made bezel.

Products used in this video:
In this tutorial I highlighted one of my tools used for setting stones. This is the Gesswein bench setters microscope. I was given this microscope in exchange for a tool review. You can watch this review on my channel. So using it in today’s video is my own choice, not sponsored or paid for. It’s just a great piece of equipment that I want to share.
