Class Description

Fused Sterling Rings
Fused Sterling Rings
Click to enlarge   Click to enlarge
With Joe & Anat Silvera

Fusing isn’t just for Argentium and fine silver. You can fuse regular, copper alloyed sterling, too. The only side effect is lots of beautiful texture! Fuse with mixed metals by adding two Argentium sterling bands for a contrasting border, and create pattern and texture with your torch. Sign up for this class and learn how to turn your scrap sterling into a beautiful ring, charm, etc, without any solder at all.

Friday, July 9th 2010 9am-5pm (with a two-hour break)

Level: Beginner: some previous experience with fusing or soldering recommended.

Kit Fee: $28 (click here for a list of what's included)
