    Default Stone Setting

    Hi,

    I'm looking to do a course on stone-setting - has anyone got any recommendations especially in the South-west?

    Thank you!

    Not sure where you are, but Mid Cornwall School of Jewellery might be the obvious place to start.

    Mid Cornwall is a great school and most of the tutors are good but ............

    Oh, was it the stone setting course that wasn't great? I know there's one that gets consistently less good reviews than the others.

    It's a particular tutor who I and others I've spoken with had a bad experience with. Everyone else is great though and Lisa Cain is lovely.

    I've contacted the Mid-Cornwall School of Jewellery and they only run one stone-setting course a year and it is fully booked for this year!

    I'm thinking at looking in the London direction as there seems to be a few more places.

    Hi George, this is one that I have been trying to find too, they only do a one-to-one class and its very expensive. They only seem to do PMC in their run of the mill classes. Regards, Pat
