Several years ago, I enrolled in Kent Raible’s online programs—and it changed everything!

Kent has been my mentor and instructor ever since, and he is the reason I’ve reached a level of technical proficiency that allows me to create higher-level jewelry pieces with confidence and intention. Even after years of learning from him, I’m still discovering new insights and refining my skills.

If you’re serious about taking your jewelry work to the next level, Unveil Your Mastery is where it begins. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Master the Bench: Unveil Your Mastery with Kent Raible
Join Master Metalsmith Kent Raible for his 4-month Unveil Your Mastery program starting January 12, 2026.
This is not a watch-and-learn course; it's a deep-dive mentorship where Kent guides you though his landmark fabrication courses: Going Tubular, and Architecture of a Ring, providing step-by-step advanced lessons and personalized feedback.

✅ Key Skills: Tube making for multiple bezels, hinges and opening bails, complex bezel setting, ring fabrication from intricate bands to rings with multiple gems and intricate detail.
✅ Format: Live Zoom demos and daily Q&A in a supportive community.

Stop guessing—start mastering.

Dear friends - I would love your thoughts and opinions on a website I put together.

It is a Jewelry Making School Directory that can be searched by specific technique and by location (US only for now).

The hope is to eventually have a comprehensive resource that will help connect students with studios. Studios can claim their profiles for free. The profiles will always be free. I know first hand how tight marketing budgets are!

Please take a look and let me know what you think. It’s not 100% ready for launch but very close…

Loving how this ring turned out. All hand fabricated. If you have a design in your mind, let’s chat. I love to make creative visions come to life.

A Mala necklace has 108 beads with one ‘sumeru’ bead or ‘guru’ bead at the summit. Malas are used to help the mind focus on meditation, or count mantras in sets of 108 repetitions. I use mine when walking in the park to keep me focused on my Pranayama - breath. How do you use yours?
