Clay!❤
Is that first one .....a nipple?
I so need to get my crafts area organized and start making some jewelry with this beautiful medium 🥰😎🙌🏽
Yes 🙌🙌 Let us know if you have any questions at all 💫
Can we put colour on it?
It would be possible to enamel/cold enamel after firing - that’s actually something I’m planning for a future video 😊
@@Cognac_Jewellery_School ow.. Can't wait to see that... 🤩
This was so helpful!
I’m so pleased! Thank you 💫
Clay
Thanks so much! If you hop on over to my channel you’ll find the full tutorial there 🌸💫
Can you sand the front? Where the design is to polish them?!❤
You can polish the front by hand or with a polishing motor, just be careful not to polish away the details in your design 💫
Nice job! Love botanical jewelry.
Thank you so much!
Skipping over to Amazon to find mold compound and silver clay! Thank you! ❤❤
Fantastic!! Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions! 🌸💫
You are so underrated, I appreciate the effort you put into all of your videos, it must take so long to make them! Wonderful creations, I love them so much!
This is the kindest comment, thank you so much. I really appreciate it 🥰💫
I am new to the word of jewelry making and loved your style.❤
Thank you so much! Welcome to the world of jewellery! Let me know if you have any questions at all 💫🌸
I wish I could be a jeweler! I miss working with metals...
Never say never! Which metals have you worked with before?
Jesus loves you all and enjoy your day P.S turn to Him and get right with Him before it's too late ❤ Don't forget to pray ❤❤❤
💫🌸💫
This is beautiful ❤
Thank you so much! 💫
Wow that's really cool! This was a good video. Is there a gold version, or a way to get them in gold? Clay!
Thanks so much! Yes there is a gold version - ArtClay do a 22ct gold one. It’s eye-wateringly expensive but so beautiful. For a more economical alternative they can also be plated for a gold vermeil version. The full tutorial is available on my channel if you are interested! 💫
👏😊💐
❤️🙏❤️

HI! How I enjoy the videos you make, all the aesthetics!
Your comment has made my day, thank you so much! 💫
onde comprar argila prateada??
Em que país você mora? Eu usa Cookson para a Europa
Great music.
Thank you so much ☺️
👍😊💐
💙💍🙏
Great ideas! I have a small dried leaf from my mother's fig tree. Merry Christmas to mom!
Oh lovely! Let us know how it turns out!
Capillary reaction!
Yes!! 💫
Hey, friend!
Bonjour! 👋
I'm American and I've never heard someone use the hard L when saying solder.
Oh, no way! I don’t think I have heard it pronounced any other way, but now I really want to know how you pronounce it! 😄
Helpful!
I’m so glad! Thanks so much
Que bueno encontrar este video, justamente tengo unos cabujon de corazón y quería ver el paso a paso del cajón o engaste, gracias, hermosos tus videos y tus joyas❤❤❤❤❤
Muchas gracias por su comentario ¡Me allegra mucho de haber podido ayudar! 💙💙❤️
I need practice n advice. Mine melt my piece everytime
Don’t worry - fine silver bezels are so easy to melt! Without knowing your setup my best advice would be to move your torch further away from your setting and keep it moving at all times to avoid heating any one section too much. And practice, practice, practice! Feel free to send me an email if you want more in-depth help 😊
@@Cognac_Jewellery_School will do. I'll practice some more n if I still cnt get it. I'll ask for your help again. Thanks for the advice!
Good luck! 🤞💙
❤🎉❤
💙🙏💙
Soooo posh!
💁♀️❤️
You are a great teacher, concise, lovely and approachable!
You have entirely made my day. Thank you so much 💙
I absolutely love this technique!
Same! Once you’ve mastered it it’s hard to remember how you did it any other way! 💫
That hair!
Thank you so much! I just had a monster haircut so I’m really missing it right now!
Congratulations! Well deserved. Your tutorials are good and easy to understand. Would you consider doing a tutorial on how to add a decorative couple of prongs to a bezel set pendant?
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it 🙏 Yes, absolutely - I would be happy to! Any and all suggestions for tutorials are gratefully received 💙
Great video by the way! Thank you!
Thank you so much 🙂
Any tips if I want to make an oval bangle rather than round? How much smaller would I cut the length?
To make an oval bangle I would add the longer internal diameter to the smaller internal diameter and divide it by 2 - that will give you an average diameter. Then add the thickness of your metal to that number and multiply the total by Pi to give you the length you need to cut. I hope that makes sense. There’s an Essential guide to bangles, cuffs & bracelets linked in the description that has all of this sort of information if you’d like it 🙂
❤
💙💙
Enjoyed that, and other vids, but sadly not the hammered coin I was expecting! Came hoping to see if I could learn to put a silver hammered Elizabeth 1 Penny I found in to a necklace for my very own Elizabeth’s 18th …Any plans for a ‘mounting a coin into a necklace’ type video??😊
Hello! Ah, yes - not the same thing at all! But what an excellent coin find and a lovely idea. I’d be happy to make a video to show how to do it. There are a few different ways to make a mount for a coin. Is your penny round or more freeform in shape?
@@Cognac_Jewellery_School round - but super thin, and sadly rather brittle. I had thought about encasing it in epoxy in a open bezel, and have even made a few tentative tries with more ordinary coins. They are just such lovely things. I’ll send you a photo or two.
Thank you for the photo! I have sent over some thoughts 🧐
❤🐶

💙💙💙
Can you do this with an insect wing?
Oo that is a great question! It is not something I have ever tried, but I will give it a go and get back to you!
Is that a Whippet? We have a male named Buckaroo. P.S. Thanks for the video!
You’re most welcome! I think Buckaroo might just be the best name for a whippet that I have ever heard! And yes indeed, that’s Piglet the Whippet - the youngest and naughtiest of the pack 💙
I just purchased a charcoal crucible… do I have to season it with borax and flux like a ceramic crucible? Thank you for your lovely tutes!
A charcoal crucible doesn’t need seasoning like a ceramic one so you should be good to go - just check the manufacturers guide to see if it needs tempering first. Otherwise, have an excellent melt down, and thank you so much for your kind words!
Very nice!
Thank you so much!
...so lovely 💚
Thank you so much ☺️
This is so interesting and clever.
Thank you so much!!
Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing this. How do you decide to have the stone back open or closed please?
Thank you so much! It’s really a matter of style, but with transparent cabochons like these if they have a closed back, the light reflected through them off the polished silver will make them sparkle much more than if they had open backs with a finger underneath (and of course sparkliness is everything!)
I think you’re doing a fabulous job. I am a professional metalsmith and an instructor as well. And I absolutely love your accent. Anyway, I think your earrings turned out really beautiful. Hugs 🤗, Michelle
Thank you so much Michelle! I really appreciate that! 💙
Great tips… I will put my bezel on a bezel mandrel or even a ring mandrel and stretch my bezel out with a non-moring type of hammer or a rawhide hammer or a rubber hammer. It works the same way. But remember if you’re using the bezel or ring, mandrel method. Make sure you flip the bezel over and do the same thing again, so your bezel will be equally rounded out , hugs 🤗 Michelle
This is an excellent method too, thanks so much for sharing! I also saw someone stretch their setting by rolling it on the bench using their mandrel the other day - it’s not something I had seen before, but next time I’m going to give it a try! Jess
I love it! The wonderful tutorial.
Thank you so much! 💙💙
