Lapidary
&
Jewelry Arts
El Dorado County Mineral and Gem Society
holds an open Lapidary Workshop two to three nights per month.
Participants in the lapidary workshops range from beginners to those of us who like to keep on learning and perfecting. We encourage participants to share their expertise and specialties.
Jewelry Arts -
We also have special lapidary and other craft workshops. Classes have included special instruction on lampwork glass bead making, cabochon techniques, wire wrap jewelry, beaded cabochons, earrings, bracelets, necklaces and ornaments, pictographs, obsidian needle wind chimes, soapstone carving, pine needle basket weaving and beginning
silversmithing.
Recent Projects: Crystal Bracelet and Witchy Earrings
Members may enroll in regular workshops and special classes. Non-members may observe lapidary sessions and may participate with the approval of the instructor and Board of Directors.
Due to safety concerns, proper instruction on equipment use is mandatory for everyone who participates.
Lapidary Procedures must be followed. All beginning participants must
first take a two-class Lapidary Certification Course.
Schedule
Classes are generally scheduled on the 2nd and 4th
Tuesdays of the month and on the 5th Tuesday when they occur. However, dates are subject to
change. Contact us for
