From the Wax Project to the Setting Techniques (4h)

This course will roll out in two chapters.

For your first part, you will discover setting techniques, then you will execute your own mounting on silver.  

For the second part of your course, you will sculpt on a wax model and design the placement for the stones on it, preparing the wing of a butterfly jewel. Your teacher will guide you in your pursuit of symmetry, adjusting the shapes and the drawing out of placements for stones.

• Your teachers are a jeweler and a stone-setter from the High Jewelry workshops of the Maison Van Cleef & Arpels. They are called the "Mains d'Or™" because of their virtuosity.
• You are welcomed by your teachers before the class starts: a chance to meet each other and share experiences.
• You don’t need to bring any specific material.
• A certificate is given at the end of the class.
• After each class, teachers deliver a list of books, podcasts, websites, museums related to the course attended.
