Week 3 in Rome 🇮🇹
This week was all about the foundation. Learning how to create and modify my own stone-setting tools has shown me that precision starts long before a diamond is ever set. Every tool is an extension of the setter’s hands, and mastering them is part of mastering the craft.
Between classes, I took a quick trip to Barcelona 🇪🇸 with my wife and son, creating memories while continuing this incredible journey.
From the classroom to the streets of Europe, every experience is shaping me into a better jeweler and craftsman. Grateful for the opportunity to learn, grow, and share the process with all of you.
Follow along as I continue my journey at one of the world’s most respected stone-setting schools.
