In this week's episode of the Jewellers Academy Podcast, Jess talks with fine jeweller and experienced instructor April Dace about her upcoming three-day in-person masterclass in Brighton (2nd - 4th October 2025). Designed for intermediate to advanced jewellers, the course focuses on creating a stunning Tiara wedding band with five claws - a perfect project to refine your stone setting skills and elevate your engagement ring designs. April shares what students can expect, from shaping and fitting rings for stones to creating precise settings, soldering, and claw work. While the project will be completed in silver during the class, the techniques apply directly to gold work, repairs, and developing your own collection. With only eight spaces available, this is a rare chance for personalised feedback and hands-on learning in a relaxed, inspiring Brighton studio. We also discuss the benefits of in-person training, tips to prepare for the course, and how mastering fine jewellery techniques can boost your business’s profitability. Can’t make it to Brighton? April’s online masterclass , featuring an additional project, opens for enrolment in September. Whether you’re looking to sharpen your skills, expand your portfolio, or add high-value pieces to your offering, this episode will inspire you to take your stone setting to the next level.
