Jewellery making workshop/studio/teacher recommendations?

Hi all,

I'd like hand-make a simple piece of jewellery (inc mounting/setting a stone) in the near future and would like to find a suitable place to help me do it in Tokyo. A craftsperson who can guide me through the process over a number of sessions would be amazing!

Does anyone know of anywhere/anyone that could help with that?

Thanks!

I once visited this very charming jewellery shop/workshop in Ginza:

They do beautiful handmade items, and you can commission them to do a personalised piece :). Maybe they can help you.

Thanks Tania! Actually I found them online after posting this and shortlisted them as an option. I emailed them on Friday so hopefully I’ll hear back soon.

I’m still interested to know what other options are out there too.

Send me a message if you're still looking, Mark. I've got a friend who does this.

Thanks Andrew! Actually I'm all set for this now as I ended up buying the equipment I need and going it alone! Has been a fun learning experience! Perhaps I can share the outcomes on Canvas once it's done!
