Stone on Stone with Jennifer Knollenberg

CLASS DESCRIPTION
Would you like to add dimension to your work with colored stones? Learn to use lapidary equipment to form and shape stones to mount one on top of the other. In this hands-on class Jennifer will show how to prepare both the bottom and top stones in order to set them stone on stone into your jewelry.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Jennifer was born and raised in Boulder, Colorado. As is often the case, Jennifer did not begin her adult life as an artist. Her early roots began in chemistry and food science where she developed a love of creating art with food. Jennifer feels that her creative spark was truly ignited when she completed the graduate jeweler program at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts and apprenticed with a San Francisco area jewelry designer.
Prerequisites
Lapidary experience is not required but helpful.
Tools students need to bring:
Materials Kit* Supplied by Instructor $35
Number of Seats
Maximum eight students. All participants will be required to sign a waiver.
