Bling, bling! In this workshop, students will make a stunning sterling silver pendant with a Herkimer Diamond (a crystal-clear natural quartz crystal). Using a jeweler’s saw frame and sawblades you will pierce (cut) out the outside shape of your choice and then at the center pierce out the prongs that hold the stone. Then you file and sand the silver, set the crystal and add the chain.
*Some believe the energy of these stones will guide you through difficult situations and put you at ease. They are thought to make your work vision clear and help manifest dreams.
