Make an Ornate Setting for a Long Cabochon: A Silversmithing Tutorial
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- This tutorial shows how to make an intricate prong setting for an elongated oval Turquoise cabochon. This is an advanced level project. For materials, I used 16 (1.3 mm) and 18 (1.02 mm) gauge sterling round wire, and 16 gauge (1.3 mm) sterling square wire. As always, I use hard silver sheet solder and My-T-Flux, although I used a little of Easy paste solder for the final bit.

Hi Chad from Sydney Australia. I am really enjoying your tutorials and the tips and tricks. This is a lovely design that I'm looking forward to making!
Thank you Susie. Send a pic to my Instagram when you do. I love seeing peoples’ interpretations of projects I put up:)
Thank you Chad for the awesome design and instructions!! I’ve wanted to make this type of ring for awhile-you make it look so easy!!
Thanks Carol! It was a good challenge. I wasn’t sure how it would turn out, but I am pleased:)
Pretty!
Thanks:)
Looks great!
Thank you Beauford!
Very nice Chad!!!! You help me immensely!! Lovely work.
Ive just started silversmithing within a year and went with argentium. So far, so good as I don't know any better. Do you know??
I've honestly never tried Argentium. I'm always tempted to buy a little to try it, but it's on the bottom of my shopping list:). I know some folks love it. One of my close friends tried it, and struggled with soldering when using it. What is your experience with it Robboback?
@@chadssilversmithing
Chad I'm the guy who uses argentium. I have no trouble soldering it. But, I haven't soldered sterling!! I've been tempted to get sterling but worry about fire scale!!! I've had a long life of soldering and welding/brazing. It's no problem to make sure the metal is clean with the right flux.
(I've soldered and brazed without flux!!!) But everything was super clean. Try argentium some time just for the heck of it. I'm buying sterling! How do you like the hike in silver prices? Are they going to take silver away from us like they did with gold!!!?
The filigree design on the sides looks like a face with a mustache, like the tree man carvings
Hehe! I noticed that too after I was done:)
I really like this! If you had a round stone, would you make the band the same way?
Hello Nosmalltalk:). It would be very much the same, although I think it would have to have a downward curve on the top of each side.
So, so pretty! Love it. ❤
Thanks WaterMarbler!
Fancier than a fancy thing! That's awesome Chad, very nice indeed. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend.
You too Gazz! Thanks:)
