This unusual rectangular stone was collected from the Barron floodplain after the recent floods. The silverwork and cabbing on both these pieces of jewellery was done by Tarnay. Very impressive work.

We are very proud of the very creative people in our silversmithing room. Here are their latest achievements.

The faceting room is always irresistible. Mark has been busy with some exquisite work.
More exceptional work from our silversmithing classes. Recently completed by a very talented member. The exquisite moonstone ring was completed by Travis, who has amazing ideas. Not to be left out is a beautiful larimar ring created by Kristy.
